Shrub that grows vertically and can turn into a multi-trunked tree. Usually a conscious choice is made for several trunks when growing this bush. This is done to reinforce the effect created by the flowers. Young twigs are remarkably green. Old branches and trunk turn brownish-green. The trunk remains smooth. The dark green leaf is triple, each leaf segment being 3 - 8 cm long with a blue-green underside. There are a great many flowers in golden-yellow pendulous bunches, 10 - 20 (25) cm long, but the flowers have no scent. The seedpods, leaves and young twigs carry soft hairs. In this matter this Laburnum differs radically from other types. L. anagyroides is often used as grafting trunk. A better ornamental tree is Laburnum watereri 'Vossii', a hybrid of L. alpinum and L. anagyroides.
