Description
Redbud Tree is a breathtaking ornamental tree that bursts into a magnificent display each spring. Before its heart-shaped leaves emerge, its bare branches are covered in clusters of vivid pinkish-purple flowers, creating a stunning splash of color in the landscape. As the blooms fade, lush green foliage takes center stage, providing a fresh and polished look throughout the growing season. In fall, the leaves turn a satisfying mix of golden yellow hues, adding seasonal interest. With its refined branching structure and year-round beauty, this tree is one of the finest choices for specimen plantings, borders, or adding elegance to smaller landscapes.
General Care

- Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots and support healthy growth; once established, requires little supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods
- Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
- Pruning: Prune in late winter if shaping is needed or to remove dead wood
With its striking spring blooms, refined foliage, and satisfying seasonal color, Redbud Tree is a showstopping addition that brings beauty and interest to the landscape year after year.
