Cassia javanica, commonly called the Java cassia or pink shower tree, is a deciduous to semi-evergreen ornamental tree celebrated for its spectacular displays of rosy-pink blossoms that cascade in dense clusters during the warm season. Native to Southeast Asia, it can reach 30–50 feet in height, forming a broad, spreading canopy with gracefully arching branches and pinnate leaves composed of numerous oval leaflets that provide a soft, feathery texture. When in bloom, the tree becomes almost entirely enveloped in flowers ranging from pale blush to deep rose, with contrasting yellow stamens that add visual richness; these blooms often appear before the new flush of foliage, intensifying their dramatic effect. After flowering, it develops elongated brown pods that may persist on the branches and provide additional interest. Cassia javanica thrives in full sun, warm temperatures, and well-drained soils, showing moderate tolerance to drought once established. Valued in tropical and subtropical regions for avenue planting, parks, and large gardens, it offers unmatched seasonal color and a graceful form that makes it one of the most admired ornamental flowering trees in its genus.
