Albizia adianthifolia, commonly known as Flat-Crown, is a deciduous tree native to a variety of habitats including coastal forests, riverine woodlands, and savannahs in sub-Saharan Africa. It can reach a height of 25 meters (82 ft) and develops a distinctive spreading, flat crown that provides dappled shade. The tree is notable for its bright green, twice compound leaves, with small leaflets measuring 2–5 x 8 mm. During winter or spring, it produces heavily scented, fluffy, cream to pale yellow flowers that attract pollinators. The flowers are showy and create a striking contrast against the foliage.

Flat-Crown is valued for its ornamental features and is often used in urban landscapes, parks, and suburban gardens where it is retained as a native species. It is also appreciated for its ability to adapt to various soil types, although it prefers sandy soil with good drainage. This tree requires full sun to thrive and needs moderate watering. It is relatively easy to grow from seeds, which are produced in abundance. Albizia adianthifolia is also used for its medicinal properties in traditional African medicine. However, gardeners should be aware that it can become quite large, requiring sufficient space to accommodate its growth.CC BY-SA 4.0
