Flowering Period
Native to Eastern Asia, Koelreuteria paniculata is an exceptional deciduous tree or tall shrub that will provide multiple seasons of interest throughout the year. Commonly known as Pride of India or Golden Rain tree, this slow-growing tree gradually forms a dome-like crown of silver-grey branches and textured bark. These branches bear large, dainty, pinnate leaves measuring up to 40cm long and made up of leaflets with toothed edges. The foliage emerges an eye-catching bronze-pink in spring and in autumn it transforms to fiery shades of yellow and orange to create a striking display. Long panicles measuring 20-40cm in length hold vibrant yellow blooms in July and August which are followed by attractive seed pods that look like paper lanterns. The pods begin green and change to orange and pink as they age. Grow this award-winning tree as a single-stemmed specimen or for an even more spectacular display, grow as a multi-stemmed tree/shrub. It can also be grown in a large pot if shallow-rooted to make a stunning feature in a courtyard or patio. Tolerant of drought once established, Koelreuteria paniculata likes a sunny, sheltered spot with freely draining soil. Also tolerates shallow, chalky soils and urban pollution. Maximum height and spread: 10m (33ft).

Growing Information

Grow Koelreuteria in a sunny, sheltered position protected from cold winds in freely draining soil. Will tolerate shallow calcareous soils. When planting, plant at the same level as the level of the nursery pot or just above, ensuring that the root flare is not buried. For large trees provide suitable support with posts and tree ties. Maintain a 1m diameter circle of bare ground around the tree to prevent competition from grass and weeds for water and nutrients. Failure to do this will significantly affect the growth of the tree. Water well in the first two years until the tree is well established. Take special care during dry springs.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Suttons products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.
