It is easily recognized by its broad umbrella-shaped crown, bipinnate leaves, and spectacular bright golden-yellow flowers borne in large terminal panicles during April to July. The fruits are flat, winged pods that turn reddish-brown to dark brown as they mature and often remain on the tree for several months.
