PURPLE HEART-SHAPED FOLIAGE & BRIGHT PINK SPRING FLOWERS GIVE MULTI-SEASONAL APPEAL!

Unique in its shape and color, this delightful Forest Pansy Redbud tree will add a striking, almost whimsical appeal to your landscape design.

The purple flowering tree is a fully leaved cultivar of the Missouri-native redbud tree. It is a small, deciduous tree featuring a spreading, flat-to-rounded crown, and can eventually grow to 20-30 feet high.

The Forest pansy redbud tree’s clusters of tiny, rosy purple pea-like pink flowers grow profusely on the branches and mature trunks of the planted tree for 2-3 weeks in the early spring growing season. Then the heart shaped leaves and foliage emerges. The blooms are a more intense rose-purple than common eastern redbud.

The new foliage on this small to medium sized tree emerges red-purple, eventually fading to a purplish-green later in the season. The flowering tree’s purple leaves turn pale yellow to greenish-yellow in fall, providing nearly year round interest with mesmerizing fall color.
