The golden shower tree is a medium-sized tree, growing to 10-20 m (33-66 ft) tall with fast growth. The leaves are deciduous, 15-60 cm (5.9-23.6 in) long, and pinnate with three to eight pairs of leaflets, each leaflet 7-21 cm (2.8-8.3 in) long and 4-9 cm (1.6-3.5 in) broad. The flowers are produced in pendulous racemes 20-40 cm (7.9-15.7 in) long, each flower 4-7 cm (1.6-2.8 in) diameter with five yellow petals of equal size and shape. The fruit is a legume, 30-60 cm (12-24 in) long and 1.5-2.5 centimetres (0.59-0.98 in) broad, with a pungent odor and containing several seeds. The tree has strong and very durable wood, and has been used to construct "Ahala Kanuwa", a place at Adams Peak, Sri Lanka, which is made of Cassia fistula (ahala, ehela, or aehaela, ඇහැල in Sinhala [2]) heartwood.
