tree of heaven; Ailanthus altissima
A deciduous tree native to China, often planted in gardens and streets. The Japanese name literally means 'garden lacquer tree'.

The name 庭漆 (にわうるし) combines 庭 (garden) and 漆 (lacquer), likely referring to its resemblance to the lacquer tree and its common planting in gardens.
