I was posting a picture of the new baby leaves on my Golden Rain Tree (Golden Rain Tree (Koelreuteria paniculata)) when I saw that there were two pictures that look more like a Forest Pansy Redbud "Heart of Gold" rather than a Golden Rain. Here's the pictures I'm curious about: and

Help? Am I confused? Probably!!

They sure do not look like the same tree to me.

but I can't say what it really is. This might need to be moved to the bin of unidentified photos if nobody can step up to save the day here.

I'm not sure but look at the leaves at the top of this image, cut off in the photo. There you may have the correct leaf form? Especially top right.

I'll take a close up of my tree in the morning. The leaves are very skinny, not broad leaves at all.

It doesn't look like Koelreuteria foliage to me either ... reminds me of Acalypha pendula leaves. Maybe a tree-mail could be sent to Paul asking for confirmation? He may have mistakenly uploaded those two photo's to the wrong plant ... I know I've done that a few times.
