Golden Shower Tree 100 Seeds Cassia fistula

Cassia fistula, widely known as the golden shower tree, is a flowering tree admired for its breathtaking display of bright golden-yellow blossoms that hang in long, graceful clusters, often covering the tree in a cascade of color during the summer months. This medium-sized deciduous tree, native to South Asia, typically grows between 10 and 20 meters in height, with a spreading canopy that provides light shade and enhances ornamental landscapes. Its leaves are compound and glossy green, creating a beautiful contrast to the vibrant flowers that bloom profusely, often before the foliage fully develops, making the floral show even more striking. Following the flowering season, the tree produces distinctive long, dark brown cylindrical seed pods that can reach lengths of up to 60 centimeters, adding further interest to its appearance. Cassia fistula thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, tolerates heat and drought, and is a low-maintenance species widely used in parks, gardens, and along avenues for its stunning ornamental value. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the tree holds cultural significance in various regions, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune, and is the national tree of Thailand. Its nectar-rich flowers also attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it an ecologically beneficial addition to tropical and subtropical landscapes.
