Merlot Redbud

Merlot Redbud Tree is a perfect spring flowering tree for smaller landscapes. This new hybrid sets new standards for purple-leaved redbuds. Leaves won't burn in the sun. Outstanding Dark Purple to Burgundy foliage is similar to Forest Pansy Redbud, but with Texas Redbud in its genes, Merlot Redbud Tree boasts excellent drought tolerance and thicker, glossier leaves that stand up to summer heat. Some additional reasons to love the Merlot Redbud, outside of its breathtaking foliage, is its attraction of pollinators and its tolerance to pests and diseases. The tree's deep pink spring blossoms will have your yard filled with all the good creatures of butterflies, birds, ,and bees, and none of the bad!
