Chinese flame tree
(Koelreuteria bipinnata)

Koelreuteria bipinnata, the Chinese flame tree is a small tree (max. 15 meters tall) from South China. Very popular in Asia and other warm temperate countries for urban plantations and landscaping for its magnificence at all growth stages and seasons. In effect, its blooming in long yellow panicles, its fruit grapes looking like small red Chinese lanterns, and its elegant and thin foliage turning orange in fall, make of Koelreuteria paniculata a spectacular tree at all times.
