Laburnum x watereri 'Vossii' Pleached also known as bird cherryArguably the best known and most widely planted of the Laburnum family, 'Vossii' forms a very small tree with a vase shaped crown which reaches a height of perhaps 5 7 meters. Truly a sight to behold when it flowers in May June, as the tree is literally buried under long, golden yellow pendulous bunches of flowers up to 50 centimeters long. An easy tree to grow which performs well on a wide range of soil typles. A shallow rooting habit. CAUTION toxic
