Big, blue-green heart-shaped leaves and a dense, rounded form are just a couple of the fabulous features of this Redbud. Fuschia pink to red flowers explode into abundance in late April. Foliage turns yellow in the fall. The foliage provides caterpillar food for some of our area's most sought-after butterflies.
