Peltophorum is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. The most well-known species in this genus is Peltophorum pterocarpum, commonly known as the Copperpod or Yellow Poinciana. Here is a general description of this popular ornamental tree:

  1. Appearance: Peltophorum is a medium to large-sized deciduous tree, typically reaching a height of about 15 to 25 meters (49 to 82 feet). It has a spreading, umbrella-like crown and a moderately thick trunk.

  2. Leaves: The leaves of Peltophorum are alternate and pinnately compound. Each leaf is composed of several pairs of small, oval-shaped leaflets, typically around 5 to 7 pairs, with a larger terminal leaflet. The leaves are bright green and provide a lush appearance to the tree.

  3. Flowers: One of the most attractive features of the Copperpod tree is its vibrant and abundant flowers. The flowers are bright yellow and have a unique shape resembling a small butterfly. They are arranged in dense, showy clusters at the ends of the branches.

  4. Flowering season: Peltophorum trees usually bloom during the spring and early summer months, depending on the specific region and climate.

  5. Fruits: After flowering, the tree produces flattened, woody seed pods. These pods are brown and can persist on the tree for an extended period.

  6. Habitat: Peltophorum trees are native to tropical regions and are commonly found in countries like India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, and Thailand. They are well-suited for warm, humid climates and can tolerate some drought once established.

  7. Landscaping use: Due to its stunning flowers and attractive foliage, Peltophorum pterocarpum is often planted as an ornamental tree in parks, gardens, and along streets. Its wide-spreading canopy provides excellent shade.
