I saw this Golden Shower tree (Cassia fistula) on the way to go swimming at Mauna Lani and, afterwards, went back to take photos. The mass of yellow flowers is typical for the tree. This species was crossed with the Pink and White Shower tree to produce the Rainbow Shower Tree.

Rainbow Shower trees (Cassia x nealae) produce an abundance of flowers, varying in color from yellow to orange, pink, and red, often on the same flower. The color mix is due to them being a hybrid, which is also the reason they don’t produce seedpods
