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.

I always look forward to this laburnum tree coming into flower each spring and getting to see it each day.
Laburnum alpinum (Mill.) Bercht. & J. Presl, syn.: Cytisus alpinus Mill.
Family: Fabaceae Lindl.
EN: Alpine Laburnum, Scotch Laburnum, DE: Sudalpen Goldregen, Alpen-Goldregen
Slo.: alpski nagnoj
Dat.: May 29. 2018
Lat.: 46.406605 Long.: 13.733105 (WGS84)
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.

A photographer I know posted a shot of this area last May and I was bound and determined to get here this year.

Laburnum is poisonous, but the baked-in finish should stop any worries about that 😁.....and its just so beautiful to look at. Hand gives some idea of scale.
Atherton Laburnum Rovers went with a generic programme cover for the 1995-96 Northern Premier League season. It features what appears to be action from a friendly with Bolton Wanderers. Rovers issued this 40-pager (70p) for an October 1995 visit to Crilly Park by First Division rivals Fleetwood Town. The hosts won 1-0 (how times for these clubs have changed!) in front of 135 spectators.
A bunch of the flowers of Amaltas or the Indian Laburnum (Cassia fistula) from my sister's compund in Trivandrum. Known locally as Konna or Kanikonna, this flower is the harbinger of the Kerala New Year, Vishu. All Malayalees have very nostalgic memories of this beautiful flower which is also very auspicious.
