Laburnum waterii Vossii

Laburnum × watereri 'Vossii' is a graceful, deciduous small tree prized for its long, hanging chains of bright yellow pea-flowers in late spring to early summer, creating a dramatic display. It grows best in full sun or light shade in well-drained, moderately fertile soil, and is tolerant of chalk. With fresh green foliage through the growing season, it makes an elegant specimen for smaller gardens and can also be trained over arches or pergolas for a stunning seasonal feature.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
