Desert Museum Palo Verde (Parkinsonia aculeata hybrid)
=
And a detail of the branches and blossoms. Palo Verdes have green bark and branches, in some varieties it peels like crape myrtle bark.
I'm not sure about this one, another Palo Verde anyway. Possibly Parkinsonia macrophyllum.
And a close up of the flowers.
This very slow growing bush is Cassia nemophila - it was planted about eleven years ago. (I might have closed the door of the van!!)
These are the seedpods of the Cassia nemophila.
