Redbud The Rising Sun

A  striking deciduous tree with a rounded crown, reaching up to 4 meters in height. In spring, heart-shaped leaves emerge in shades of orange, lime green, and green before settling into a full green. Small clusters of pea-like, pale pink flowers bloom on the bare branches in early spring, before the foliage appears. Fully hardy and adaptable to most soil types,  it thrives best in a sunny location. It can be pruned back significantly to maintain a specific shape or left to develop its naturally graceful form.
