Would be interested to know the exact month of flowering of these species. I plant my next visit to California in April, 2013

These photos were taken mid-October. Unfortunately, this particular specimen was later butchered by a gardener who did not know what he was doing! Hopefully it can regrow some next year. ……………

I have seen this in orange county California as street/landscape tree near new parking lots etc and one at the airport… usually at end of summer or even early fall… seems to be a “new” introduction…

This is grown by Monrovia Nursery in Los Angeles County, typically sold as a standard for home landscapes.
Unlike Cassia species, Senna species are generally easier to root from cuttings. Monrovia grows this vegetatively for uniformity. It does set some seed, but they can be variable and weak from seed.
