Cercis canadensis 'Hearts of Gold' (PBR)
American redbud
Lavender-pink, pea-like flowers form along the bare stems of this wonderful American redbud in spring, just before the foliage emerges.
Cercis canadensis 'Hearts of Gold' has juvenile foliage flushed with pinkish-orange, maturing to yellow and then green. A compact and colourful deciduous tree, which will not get too large, it will be happiest in a warm, south-facing spot.
