Description

Schizolobium Parahyba or Brazilian fern tree is notable for its fast growth and bright yellow nectar-producing flowers. This giant tree is affiliated to the legume family and is appreciated for its stunning foliage and blossoms. The flowers appear as bright, 1-inch tall spikes along the branches in summer and spring to light up the skyline.The mature tree typically has a straight trunk, up to 40 meters tall and 80 cm wide, that branches out only near the top. The bark is smooth and gray-green except by the scars left by fallen leaves. The leaves are bipinnate, a metre or more in length, with a green stem and 30–50 opposite pinnae, each with 40–60 leaflets 2–3 cm long; they are clustered near the end of the branches, and fall off completely in the dry season. Young individuals, often unbranched and with leaves over 2 meters long, may be mistaken for ferns or palms.

The numerous bright yellow nectar-producing flowers, about 3.5 cm in diameter, bloom from October through December in the Southern Hemisphere, after the leaves have fallen off. In Southeast Brazil they are visited chiefly by bees Centris labrosa, Centris varia, Xylocopa frontalis and Megachille species. The fruits ripen between April and June. Each fruits is a tadpole-like pod about 10 cm long, containing a single oval seed, smooth and brown.











Uses

The wood is odorless, straw-colored, soft and light (density 0.32 to 0.39 g/cm3, increasing with age). Formerly used for dugout canoes, it is now used for toys, boxes, shoe heels, the inner layers of laminated wood, and paper. It is easily cultivated, yielding 600 m3 of wood per hectare after 10 years.
