Cladrastis kentukea aka lutea - Cladrastis kentukea, commonly called American yellowwood, is a medium-sized, deciduous tree of the legume family that typically grows 30-50’ tall with upright branching and a broad, rounded crown. It is noted for its pinnately compound foliage, panicles of fragrant white spring flowers, autumn seed pods and yellow fall color. Leaves open as yellowish green, turn bright green in summer and then turn yellow in fall. Intensely fragrant pink flowers in large, drooping, will cover a mature tree in late spring. Profuse bloom may occur only once every 2 or 3 years however. Flowers give way to flat seed pods that mature in September-October. Species was formerly called Cladrastus lutea. Family: Fabaceae
