The Cercis Canadensis 'Avondale' (Avondale Redbud) is a compact and striking deciduous tree, cherished for its vibrant seasonal display. In early spring, its bare branches burst with masses of bright pink, pea-shaped flowers, creating a spectacular show before the heart-shaped green foliage emerges.
As the leaves appear, they provide a lush canopy, transitioning to yellow tones in autumn before shedding. This small, ornamental tree is ideal for gardens, courtyards, and confined spaces, thriving in full sun to partial shade. Its tidy growth habit and vibrant seasonal changes make it a standout choice for feature planting.
