Cercis canadencis Forest Pansy - North American Redbud Tree

Cercis 'Forest Pansy' is a popular and dramatic small tree grown for its beautiful foliage and, much as the profuse blooming - gorgeous pink flowers appear before any leaves at the end of Winter. Then, the glorious heart-shaped leaves emerge a glossy, vibrant ruby red and darken to a rich purple-plum shade for the summer. In autumn, they turn striking shades of orange, red, yellow, and purple. The autumn sun makes some leaves appear translucent while others reflect the light.

Try and plant in a position where the sun can shine behind the foliage to achieve the full effect. This Cercis will form a bushy, rounded form with the branches smothered in tiny, deep pink flowers ahead of the foliage each spring. Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy' has deservedly won the RHS Award of Garden Merit, and it is very easy to grow and maintain.

Supplied in approx. 4-5 litre containers.
