Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The eastern redbud, Cercis canadensis, is native from southern Ontario through much of the eastern US. It has beautiful pink to magenta pea-like flowers that form in clusters along the branches and trunks in early spring before the mid green heart-shaped leaves emerge. The flowers are edible and can be eaten fresh or fried. 'Pink Pom Poms' is a special double form with profuse clusters of deep pink flowers and glossy leaves. The flowers are sterile and do not produce seed pods. For the 2025 Rare Flowering Tree Pre-Order plants will be in 1g pots and about 1-2 feet tall. Photo: JC Raulston Arboretum.

This gorgeous 20' tree has some of the most incredible redbud flowers ever! This delightful hybrid has blossoms that are much larger, extraordinary and showier than others. Double, dark-magenta-pink flowers bloom in spring putting on a massive flower display. As these flowers are completely sterile, the blooms are not followed by seedpods. Lush, bright-green, glossy, heart-shaped leaves appear after the blooms and are pretty all summer before turning pale yellow in fall. This glorious redbud is an introduction from Dr. Dennis Werner of NCSU and Alex Neubauer of Hidden Hollow Nursery. S/M PPAF
