This deciduous or semi-evergreen tree has a dense, wide crown, making it an excellent street or park tree in the tropics. The foliage is bipinnate and closes up at night. The most distinctive feature is the seed pods; they remain on the tree for months and create a loud, distinctive noise when the wind blows through them.
