Its leaves are round, oval or kidney-shaped, but the top is divided into two halves, like the nails of sheep's feet, hence the name.

Bauhinia is evergreen and luxuriant all year round, which is quite resistant to smoke and dust, especially suitable for street trees; Bark contains tannin, which can be used as tanning material and dye; Roots, bark and flowers can also be used as medicine.
