Cercis canadensis ‘Cascading Hearts’ – Weeping Redbud Tree
Cercis canadensis ‘Cascading Hearts’ is a graceful weeping form of the Eastern Redbud, celebrated for its cascading branches that form a dome of foliage. In spring, clusters of bright pink to lavender pea-like flowers bloom on bare wood, creating a dramatic display before emerging heart-shaped leaves appear. These leaves start coppery, turn deep green through summer, and end the season in a warm yellow hue. Hardy and adaptable, it's perfect as a specimen or mass planting in small gardens.
