Question
What is this tree? I have never seen one like this in Massachusetts. It was planted in a town common in Cohasset, ma (south shore).
Answer
Dear katieh, the tree is Koelreuteria paniculata (golden rain-tree). This woody plant is native to Asia and is a member of the Sapindaceae (the soapberry family), the family to which maples and buckeyes belong to. Best wishes.
