Read detailed description :

The most compact of the Eastern Redbuds. The fuchsia-pink flowers appear, sprouting directly from the wood of branches, in April-May. Heart-shaped leaves follow. The young shoots are purple and slightly rumpled and become dark green in summer. Maintenance is very limited. Plant in flowerbeds and other small spaces, also in containers near terraces or on balconies.
