Cercis canadensis
Eastern Redbud
Cercis canadensis is a classic harbinger of spring, with pinkish lavender pea-shaped flowers covering its branches in April ("cauliflory"). The green heart-shaped leaves of this Eastern Redbud turn yellow in the fall, and the zigzag branching habit in the winter adds to the appeal of this large shrub or small tree. Per Dr. Michael Dirr "A native tree with a touch of class." The flowers are actually edible, so they make an attractive addition to spring salads.
