Cercis canadensis 'Flamethrower' Redbud

$45.00

The Flame Thrower Redbud is a tree you'll want to grow even if only for the incredible beauty of its heart-shaped foliage. New leaf growth emerges in a strong burgundy red, then shifts to yellow and finally green as it matures. Because each leaf transitions at its own pace, the branches show a striking mix of four to five colors at once, creating a vibrant, ever-changing display from spring through fall. It's a stunning way to bring bold, seasonal color to your garden or landscape. In early spring, you’ll also enjoy clusters of reddish-purple, pea-like flowers that bloom directly on the branches. They're beautiful on the tree, but we also love clipping a few stems to bring indoors for unique, natural décor.

Height:15 - 20 feet, although it does not grow that big in our climate.
