Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy'
Eastern Redbud
Forest Pansy is a small popular native deciduous tree with multiple trunks and a rounded crown. The leaves emerge scarlet-purple before maturing to maroon and enjoy a varied fall color of reddish-purple to orange. The heavy profusion of rosy-pink flowers blooms on bare branches in early spring before the foliage comes in attracting butterflies. Prefers partial sun and rich well-drained soils with consistent moisture. Tolerates deer and Black Walnuts.
