Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy'

In Stock (delivered within 3-4 working days)

£61.20 £68.00 -10%

(Eastern Redbud) The sun shining through the glorious rich-purple, heart-shaped leaves of Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy' is one of the wonders of the garden.

Some leaves reflect the light whilst others appear translucent, the overall effect being a tapestry of different shades of purple. A scattering of rose-pink flowers appear on the bare stems in spring and the gorgeous foliage colour lasts from mid May until November.

A truly lovely plant which deserves a good position in nearly any garden. Best in a position with plenty of sun.
