Columnar Goldenchain Tree

Brighten Your Space with Golden-Yellow Blooms

Add a pop of bright, golden-yellow color to your landscape with the sunny yellow flowers of our vase-shaped Columnar Goldenchain Tree.

The Goldenchain Tree is a heavy bloomer that features bright yellow flowers that gracefully hang down in clusters similar to grapes. The flowers will last around 2-4 weeks in mid-to-late spring, so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy them as they sway in the breeze, adding movement to your yard.

When this tree isn't blooming, enjoy the lush green leaves and upward growth without sacrificing the space that other flowering trees may require.

The Goldenchain Tree stays fairly small, so it's perfect for growing near a house, patio, or driveway where space may be limited. The root system also stays compact, meaning this variety is great for growing in containers, as well.

If you’re in search of an eye-catching flowering tree accent, the Columnar Goldenchain Tree is the way to go. Buy yours today!

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Before planting, it’s important to choose a location with enough space to accommodate the size of your tree. Furthermore, your Goldenchain Tree should be planted in a sunny spot (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. Make sure that the soil is well-draining as this tree is not tolerant of “wet feet." If you have clay soil, try adding in organic material to aid with drainage.

After you’ve selected a suitable location, dig a hole that’s at least two to three times wider than your tree’s root ball. Once you’ve placed your tree, backfill its soil, tamp down to avoid air pockets, and lastly, water to help establish its roots. Planting can be done in the fall or early spring.

2. Watering: Water your tree regularly during the growing season (approximately one thorough watering each week is fine).

But if you’re not sure when to water your tree, simply check its surrounding soil, down to around 2 or 3 inches. If the soil in this area is dry, it’s time to water. Try not to overwater as it'll discourage blooming and growth.

3. Pruning: It’s advisable to prune your tree after every blooming season to minimize winter damage.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize your tree in early spring to give it a boost. Be sure to follow product application instructions carefully.

5. Winter Protection: Your Goldenchain Tree will need some additional protection if you live in a colder climate. Make sure to avoid excess weight on the branches during winter to minimize breakage and to protect from late frosts to encourage flowering.
