Cassia brewsteri<br />

Large spreading tree to 20m<br />

with bipinnate leaves and<br />

often a broad flat crown. In<br />

Spring the tree is covered with<br />

a spectacular cover of cream<br />

‘powder-puff’ flowers which<br />

are followed by elongated and<br />

flattened papery pods that can<br />

hang on the tree for several<br />

months.<br />

Spectacular Australian native<br />

tree growing to a height of 10m.<br />

Flowers are yellow and<br />

red and pea shaped.<br />

They occur in profuse pendant<br />

heads and cover the tree making<br />

it difficult to see the foliage.
