Laburnum x watereri 'Vossii', commonly known as Golden Chain Tree, is a fantastic choice for gardeners looking to add beauty, elegance, and vibrant color to their landscape. This laburnum can be trained to grow over arbors, trellises, or pergolas, providing a stunning and fragrant focal point in outdoor living spaces.
One of the most appealing features of 'Vossii' is its spectacular display of long, drooping clusters of bright yellow flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer (May to June). These clusters can be up to 30cm long, creating a dramatic visual impact. The flowers emit a pleasant, sweet fragrance that adds to the sensory experience of the garden, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. The tree features bright green, trifoliate leaves that provide a lush backdrop for the vibrant flowers in spring. The foliage turns a lovely yellow in the fall, offering seasonal interest even after the blooming period. The combination of flowers, foliage, and tree structure provides visual interest throughout the seasons, from the vibrant blooms in spring to the yellow leaves in autumn.
Vossii typically grows to a height of about 4.5 to 7.5 meters with a spread of 3 to 4.5 meters. Its graceful, rounded crown and pendulous branches create an elegant silhouette that enhances the aesthetic of any garden.
Laburnum Vossii is relatively low maintenance once established. It requires minimal pruning and can adapt to a variety of soil types, provided they are well-drained. It is generally resistant to common pests and diseases, reducing the need for chemical treatments and making it easier to grow. Once established, Vossii can tolerate short periods of drought, making it a resilient choice for gardeners who may not be able to water frequently.
