Eastern Redbud Tree

Bursting forth with delicate pink flowers in large clusters before the leaves emerge, The Redbud tree is an attention-grabbing tree. The rosy pink blooms appear in late winter or early spring. Soon after, dark green, heart-shaped leaves form a beautiful backdrop, making the rosy-pink flowers stand out even more.  Eastern Redbud or Cercis Canadensis is a North American Native Tree that can be seen growing on wood lines all over the eastern United States. Also known as Forest Pansy, this drought-tolerant tree enjoys partial to full sun and has a moderate growth rate. This specimen tree is interesting year-round and grows in a variety of soils. Enjoy its lemon-lime-colored leaves in autumn, unique gray bark, and bare branches in winter.
