Yellow Snake Tree

Filed Under Uncategorized | 

The Yellow Snake Tree (Stereospermum colais) is fairly common in Delhi. It is 15-20 m tall, trunk 15-25 cm in diam, large leaves 25-50 cm; leaflets 3-6 on each side of midrib, long elliptic, 8-14 X 2.5-6 cm. Large, pale yellow, trumpet shaped flowers occur in panicles. The flowers look very similar to those of Sausage tree, except for the color. The flowers mostly remain closed in the day and open up at night. Stereospermum colais is also known as Kodali murichi maram in Tamil, indicating the hardness of its wood. The fruit is long and twisted, hanging from the branches. This, probably, is the source of its common name, snake tree.
