Indian Bean Tree. These deciduous trees require well drained soil and full sun. They are very tolerant of urban pollution. Large, heart-shaped leaves with flowers in July that turn into long bean pods, hence the name. Worth pollarding occasionally to contain the size and enhance the leaves.
Spreading in habit, they make excellent garden trees. Leaves can be golden or purple.
