About Koelreuteria Paniculata Multistem Parachute 80 Litre 200/250cm

Koelreuteria paniculata (Golden Rain Tree)

Ornamental, elegant, and full of character, Koelreuteria paniculata, the Golden Rain Tree, is a small deciduous tree prized for its dramatic seasonal displays. It’s a true “four-season” tree, offering beauty from spring right through to autumn.

In midsummer, mature trees are covered in large, airy panicles of golden-yellow flowers, which cascade down like fireworks – a spectacular sight that gives the tree its common name. These are followed by unusual lantern-like seed pods, flushed pink-bronze, that hang decoratively into autumn.

The foliage is just as eye-catching: divided leaves emerge pink-bronze in spring, mature to a fresh green in summer, and then turn warm shades of yellow and orange in autumn. Compact in size, with a naturally rounded crown, it’s perfect for smaller gardens where year-round interest is needed.

Growing conditions:

  • Position: Full sun for best flowering and colour

  • Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil (tolerates poorer soils once established)

  • Aspect: Hardy in the UK; thrives best in sheltered sites protected from strong winds

  • Care: Low-maintenance; prune lightly in winter or early spring if shaping is needed

Key features:

  • Small deciduous tree with year-round interest

  • Airy golden-yellow flower panicles in summer

  • Decorative bronze-pink lantern-like seed pods in autumn

  • Attractive foliage: pink-bronze in spring, green in summer, golden-orange in autumn

  • Height & Spread: 7–8m in time
