Description

The listing, Goldenrain Tree Seeds has ended.

Goldenrain Tree Seeds Will send 12 (twelve) seeds harvested September 2010 from my tree.
Should be chilled for the winter. You should keep them chilled for at least 30 more days.

Beautiful Tree, Med growth speed.
Showy yellow blossoms in early summer followed by papery hanging capsules (full of seeds) through October.

Adapts to many soil types and tolerates air pollution, drought, and alkalinity. Full sun. Grows to 30' to 40', 35' spread. (zones 5-9) Good Luck!!

The seeds are very tough skinned. I recommend some research on tips to help them sprout. I've had luck with taking some clean sand paper to them lightly, to help weaken the shell slightly, then keep them in warm, constantly damp paper towel until they sprout.

They are tolerant of poor soils and grow well almost anywhere in zones 5-9. They originally come from Asia, which the seed capsules remind me of.
