The stunningly delightful presentation lasts for weeks in the spring! Garden designers rely on Eastern Redbud's flower power. They use this tree as the main attraction in the Spring Garden. Why not follow their lead? This small, ornamental tree is a great choice. Native to most of the United States in one species or another, they are easy care. They also bring many desirable features into the landscape. New leaves unfurl underneath the flowers and grow into a perfect heart-shape for summer shade. Held on long petioles, they'll flutter and dance in a charming way whenever a breeze blows through them. As fall comes on and the nights get colder, the foliage mellows into a nice shade of harvest yellow. Tiny, purplish seed pods dangle and persist for a bit of textured winter interest. Color:
Flower: Pink and Purple, Fall: Yellow
