Lovely to look at but, and it's a big but, all parts of this particular plant are poisonous.

D16638. The Laburnum Arch at the beautiful National Trust gardens at Bodnant near Conway in North Wales. If ever there was a photographer's paradise, this must be it!
The best time to visit is mid to late May as that is when the Laburnum Arch is in full bloom. I was there at the beginning of May which is a bit early but, because it had been a warm Spring, it was just coming into flower, but only at the far end. Later in the month the whole arch would have been a mass of brilliant yellow flowers from one end to the other.

There are two Laburnum trees in the graveyard and they are looking glorious at this time of year draped in thousands of yellow flowers and bees buzzing around them.

The same Laburnum shot as the one 'next door,' only now even further processed.
As the van man has been, I'm no longer tied to my desk within earshot of the doorbell, so more 'normal' photos will follow.

Laburnum Avenue, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire - an essay in English house-building in the 1930s. Motifs from past eras - such as the mock Tudor seen here, became common, perhaps as a counterpoint to the startlingly modern rectilinear designs of the Art Deco period. Whilst pleasant (and I should say, I do like these, and live in something similar, if smaller myself), this style looked to the past, rather than the brave new world of the modernists.

Very Busy Day on Friday. Sketching session #1 This one, the Laburnum Arbor at Bayview Farm & Garden. I forgot to leave room for detail insets, so I improvised. Actually, I rather like the idea of audience participation art.
We have a beautiful laburnum tree in our front garden which has just come into bloom These cascading yellow flowers have a very powerful scent and are just teeming with pollen-laden bees.
Or Golden Chain. With very little time to get out and take photos, I turn to subjects in my not very big garden. There is always something to catch my eye (and I don't have to carry my camera very far).
Laburnum is located 17.815km on the Belgrave and Lilydale Lines.
Laburnum Station opened on the 13th July 1958. On the 1st January 2007 Laburnum Station closed for demolition and rebuilding as part of the Middleborough Road Project. On the 29th January 2007 Rebuilt Station reopened.
Laburnum is not attended by Station Staff
The yellow laburnum tree across the road is at its best this week, glorious yellow and golden chains hang and sway in the breeze.

Bodnant Garden (Welsh: Gardd Bodnant) is a National Trust property near Tal-y-Cafn, Conwy, Wales, overlooking the Conwy Valley towards the Carneddau mountains.
Founded in 1874 and developed by five generations of one family, it was gifted to the National Trust in 1949. The garden spans 80 acres of hillside and includes formal Italianate terraces, informal shrub borders stocked with plants from around the world, The Dell, a gorge garden, a number of notable trees and a waterfall. Since 2012, new areas have opened including the Winter garden, Old Park Meadow, Yew Dell and The Far End, a riverside garden. Furnace Wood and Meadow opened in 2017. There are plans to open more new areas, including Heather Hill and Cae Poeth Meadow.
Bodnant Garden was visited by over 270,000 people in 2019 and is famous for its Laburnum arch, the longest in the UK, which flowers in May and June.[1] The garden is also celebrated for its link to the plant hunters of the early 1900s whose expeditions formed the base of the garden's four National Collections of plants – Magnolia, Embothrium, Eucryphia and Rhododendron forrestii. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodnant_Garden

Laburnum, sometimes called golden chain, is a genus of two species of small trees in the subfamily Faboideae of the pea family Fabaceae. The species are Laburnum anagyroides—common laburnum and Laburnum alpinum—alpine laburnum. They are native to the mountains of southern Europe from France to the Balkans.
También conocida como Citisus laburnum y con el nombre común de "lluvia de oro". Villa La Angostura, Neuquén, Patagonia argentina.
Laburnum alpinum (Mill.) Bercht. & J. Presl, syn.: Cytisus alpinus Mill.
Family: Fabaceae Lindl.

Code: Bot_1137/2018_IMG185002
Picture file names: from Laburnum-alpinum_raw_10 to Laburnum-alpinum_raw_14.
Habitat: Narrow Alpine valley; steep mountain slopes above mountain stream, north and south aspect; light mixed wood; colluvial, rocky, skeletal, calcareous ground; shallow soil layer among rocks and boulders; partly in shade; elevation 830 m (2.720 feet); average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 3-5 deg C, alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: soil.
Place: Zadnja Trenta valley, next to the upper Soča stream near its spring and below Soča trail; near the mountain cottage Koča pri izviru Soče, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comment: There are quite a few richly and beautifully flowering trees growing in Julian Alps. Alpine Laburnum (Laburnum alpinum) is certainly one of them, if not the nicest one in spite of the fact that it never grows into a large tree. Its golden 'waterfalls' of flowers remain permanently in our consciousness. Although this South European species is widely distributed and quite common, one usually finds solitary trees scattered among other trees of light alpine woods. However, the site pictured here is unusually rich with these jewels. The mountain slopes ascending above blue and wild waters of Soča river are unforgettable in May.
