Senna multijuga, commonly known as November shower or false sicklepod, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae.
The seven fertile stamens vary in length from 4.5 to 9 mm (0.18 to 0.35 in) long and there are three tiny staminodes.
[3][6] This species was first formally described in 1792 by Louis Claude Richard who gave it the name Cassia multijuga in his Actes de la Societe D' Histoire Naturelle de Paris.
[7][8] In 1982, Howard Samuel Irwin and Rupert Charles Barneby transferred the species to the genus Senna as S. multijuga in Memoirs of the New York Botanical Garden.
It is native to northern parts of South America, and possibly Mexico, but is naturalised in many other countries, including India, parts of Southeast Asia and Africa, New Guinea and Australia.
