The Laburnum Arch is glorious when in full bloom and will take your breath away. It is located in the world famous Bodnant Gardens in Conwy, Wales.
Sometimes called golden chain or golden rain trees. Although these beautiful trees thrive in the lower elevations at Lake Tahoe, this specimen is growing in Kew Gardens, London.
Happy Tree Tuesday! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

Goudenregen is door de giftige peulen wellicht minder geschikt voor een tuin waar kinderen of honden spelen. Ook mag hij niet in de buurt van een volière staan, de aanwezige vogels zouden dan door het eten van de peulen dood kunnen gaan.

Golden rain may be less suitable for a garden where children or dogs play due to the poisonous pods. It is also not allowed to stand near an aviary, as the birds present could then die from eating the pods.
the laburnum tree is in full flower. the hum of bees when i'm standing under the foliage is wonderful. it's very loud and at first i thought it must be the sound of traffic on the a13, but no. it's happy bees foraging and pollinating www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/how-to-grow-lab...

During buzz pollination called sonification, the muscles in the thorax are contracted very fast to produce a vibration that shakes the pollen grains from flower anthers, so that the bee can collect the pollen.

Laburnum anagyroides (Fabaceae) 104 21
Laburnum anagyroides, the common laburnum, golden chain, or golden rain, is a species in the subfamily Faboideae, and genus Laburnum. It is native to Central and Southern Europe.
The plant grows and flowers in damp and mild habitats, especially in the calcareous soils of Southern Europe.
The plant is a small deciduous tree or large shrub up to 7 meters tall.
Laburnum anagyroides blooms in late spring with pea-like, yellow flowers densely packed in pendulous racemes 10–25 cm long. The flowers are golden yellow, sweet-scented, and typically bloom in May.
The seeds are legumes with large numbers of black seeds that contain cytisine, an alkaloid extremely poisonous to humans as well as goats and horses, especially when not ripe. However, some wild animals such as hares and deer can feed on them without any problems, and because of this, the plant is believed to have magic properties in some regions.
All parts of the plant contain cytisine and are poisonous if consumed.
Laburnum anagyroides is cultivated as an ornamental tree.

De goudenregen (Laburnum anagyroides)
De vruchten van de goudenregen zijn slanke peulen van 4-8 cm lang. Vaak zijn ze gedraaid. In de peulen zitten zeer giftige zwarte zaden. De trossen vruchten zijn eerst harig, maar worden later donkerbruin en kaal.
De gouden regen is door de giftige peulen wellicht minder geschikt voor een tuin waar kinderen of honden spelen.

The golden rain (Laburnum anagyroides)
The fruits of the golden rain are slender pods 4-8 cm long. They are often rotated. The pods contain very poisonous black seeds. The bunches of fruits are hairy at first, but later turn dark brown and bare.
Due to the poisonous pods, the golden rain may be less suitable for a garden where children or dogs play.
These are the Laburnum Steps at Breenhold Gardens.

The Arch is a pergola walkway of golden flowers which glow in late May and early June. At nearly 140-years-old, it's believed to be the oldest and longest flowering arch in the UK and provides a dazzling finale to the season.
With its hillside setting Bodnant Garden’s 32 hectares (80 acres) drop dramatically from manicured lawns and grand, flower-filled terraces, through buzzing wildflower meadows and shrub-filled glades, into awe-inspiring dells of water gardens and towering trees.
Established in 1874 by scientist, businessman and politician Henry Pochin, he and his family filled the garden with plants collected by famous global explorers such as Ernest Wilson, George Forrest and Harold Comber. Cared for by the National Trust since 1949, Bodnant has Britain’s earliest magnolias introduced from China in the late 1800s and unique rhododendron hybrids which were born and bred here from the 1920s.
