A petite but radiant gem of a tree, the purple tones of this selection come through in all seasons. Whether it is blossoming with its pinkish-lavender flowers or wearing its summer and autumn coats of richly colored foliage, this redbud is a standout. The compact, small stature of this tree make it an adorable focal point especially for smaller yards and gardens or in a container on a patio.
