Staphylea pinnata is a large shrub to small, multi-stemmed tree up to about 5 m high. The tree grows distinctly upright and is quite narrow at a young age. Later, it widens and will develop a vase-shaped crown. The branches are uniform olive green and the leaf buds are always pointed straight up, parallel to the twigs. The odd-pinnate leaves usually consist of five leaflets, sometimes three and rarely seven. The upper side of the leaves is bright green, the underside is blue-green. Around late May and early June, the flowers open in erect panicles. The individual flowers are white with a green base and they are sometimes slightly reddened. The colour impression is greenish-white to cream. The flowers are followed by the typically inflated fruits that are characteristic of any Staphylea. In S. pinnata, they are 2- to 3-lobed and 3 cm long and wide.
Staphylea pinnata is a strong small tree that will grow well on any nutritious, sufficiently moist but permeable soil. It is a typical warm-temperate tree that should preferably be planted in a sunny location.
