Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy' 16.5L (180cm)

Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy'

Redbud 'Forest Pansy' is a striking, compact multi-stemmed tree prized for its colourful heart-shaped foliage and beautiful spring flowers. Clusters of purple-pink, pea-like flowers appear directly on the bare stems before the leaves emerge, creating an eye-catching early-season display.

The glossy new foliage opens a vibrant ruby red before maturing through rich purple-plum tones and shades of green. In autumn, the leaves develop warm shades of orange, red, yellow and purple, providing another impressive burst of seasonal colour.

Ideal as a feature tree for smaller gardens and mixed borders, 'Forest Pansy' grows best in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. A sunny position will encourage the best flowering and help develop the richest foliage colour.
