Laburnum Tree

Laburnum Tree

In spring this small tree blooms with beautiful yellow pea-flowers in hanging clusters.
That’s why it is also called ‘Golden Chain Tree’ or ‘Golden Rain’.

It’s a very popular garden tree, but pay attention for young children, dogs, sheep and horses as ALL parts of the tree are poisonous and can be lethal if consumed in excess !
However, some wild animals such as hares and deer can feed on them without any problems.
