Cercis canadensis
Redbud
The stunning redbud (Cercis canadensis) is a beautiful tree with its bountiful pink flowers that bloom in the spring. Native to New England, *just* south of us. Not *quite* native to Massachusetts. Its one of the top trees customers ask for so we decided to carry it!
This nice sized tree requires full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil to thrive. Native to Eastern North America, this deciduous tree can reach heights of 20-30 feet and a spread of 25-35 feet.
The seeds produced by the redbud tree are a primary food source for birds such as quail, turkey, and a variety of songbirds. With its ecological importance and stunning aesthetic appeal, the redbud is a welcome addition to any wildlife habitat.
