Behold the beauty and versatility of Laburnum alpinum, also known as Scotch Laburnum or Alpine Laburnum. This gorgeous leguminous flowering tree is famed for its stunning pendulous clusters of yellow pea-like flowers which bloom in late spring. Its charm doesn't stop with the 15" floral arrays, deep green leaves form a beautiful backdrop, making it a true standout in any garden.
