Description

The Forest Pansy Redbud is a legendary, award-winning variety famous for its breathtaking, wine-red to purple heart-shaped foliage. The color is most intense in spring, creating a dramatic backdrop for its pink flowers. It’s a magnificent, small tree for adding rich, dark contrast to Bay Area gardens, especially in areas with some afternoon shade.

• Famous for its stunning, deep purple to burgundy heart-shaped leaves that emerge after the flowers, providing dramatic color from spring through summer.

• Produces a lovely contrast of rosy-pink flowers against the bare, dark branches in early spring.

• Foliage may fade to a bronzy-green in the heat of summer, especially in full sun, but often re-intensifies with cooler fall temperatures, turning vibrant shades of orange and red.

• Performs best with morning sun and afternoon shade in hot inland areas to preserve leaf color and prevent scorch.

• Its unique foliage color makes it one of the most popular and sought-after small landscape trees.
