Golden Indian Bean Tree
An inescapably beautiful hardy tree coated in big, buttery yellow leaves, evolving in colour through the seasons - your garden's pollinators will adore it!Also known as Catalpa bignonioides 'Aurea', the foliage of the Golden Indian Bean Tree first appears golden yellow in spring, taking on a subtly paler shade of yellowish green in summer, returning to the rich yellow, before dropping in early autumn to make way for fresh growth in the new year. Take a close look at the leaves, they're big and impressive, ovate in shape, and each up to 30cm long.Once mature, summertime brings a scattering of bell-like white flowerings, fascinatingly marked with hints of orange and purple, gathering in clusters across the tree, and followed by autumn to winter bean-like seed pods.Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come. Plus, this variety has even been recommended by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators'.Supplied as an established plant in a 5 litre pot, ready to plant.
