Laburnum × watereri ‘Vossii’, commonly known as the Golden Rain Tree, is a magnificent ornamental flowering tree, supplied as an impressive XL approximately 5–6ft tall established specimen in a 3/5 litre nursery pot. Famous for its spectacular cascading golden-yellow flowers, this beautiful tree provides immediate height, structure and seasonal colour, making it an outstanding choice for instant gardening and creating a mature garden effect.
‘Vossii’ is particularly celebrated for its breathtaking display of long, hanging clusters of brilliant golden-yellow, pea-like flowers, produced in abundance during late spring and early summer. The elegant flower racemes can reach impressive lengths, creating a wonderful waterfall of colour that gives the Golden Rain Tree its distinctive name.
Fresh green, clover-like foliage develops during spring, forming an attractive leafy canopy throughout summer before turning yellow and falling in autumn. Its naturally graceful branching habit makes it an excellent specimen tree, while its beautiful hanging flowers are particularly effective when grown over garden pathways, arches and pergolas.
At approximately 5–6ft tall when supplied, these established nursery trees offer considerably more immediate impact than smaller young trees. They are ideal for lawns, borders, cottage gardens, traditional planting schemes and ornamental garden features, where their spectacular golden blossom can be fully appreciated.

Important: All parts of Laburnum, particularly the seeds and seed pods, are poisonous if eaten. Care should be taken when planting in gardens accessible to young children and pets.
Please note: Laburnum ‘Vossii’ is deciduous, so trees naturally lose their foliage during autumn and winter and may arrive completely bare during the dormant season. Flowering is seasonal and cannot be guaranteed at the time of dispatch. Height, branching, shape and fullness will naturally vary between individual trees and according to the time of year. Plants are carefully selected before dispatch to provide strong, established XL approximately 5–6ft trees ready to create immediate garden impact.
