Forest Pansy Redbud Trees

Forest Pansy Redbud Trees

The Forest Pansy Redbud Trees are small but mighty understory trees, whose round tops look best when nestled under the dappled shade of their taller tree neighbors. The blooms have five large, pillowy petals that range from deep to light pink. The leaves are heart-shaped and rich red. It has brown bean pods that dry and may stay on the branches during winter, creating a unique off-season look. This tree is a native of eastern and central North America and is commonly found in Connecticut, New York, and southern Ontario. The bright, pinkish-red flowers appear on this tree in early spring, before even the foliage starts to emerge. It is a captivating addition to your grove of trees or garden space.
