Forest Pansy Redbud Tree

Forest Pansy Redbud delivers colorful surprises in every season. Everyone loves redbuds for their clouds of spring blooms, but this rapid-growing variety adds beauty to your yard year-round: showy pink or lavender blossoms and dark red-purple leaves in spring, then stunning, heart-shaped, deep burgundy leaves all summer, followed by brilliant red and orange foliage in fall. It grows in a graceful, spreading form, and its trunk often divides, making it a lovely specimen for your landscape. Heat-tolerant, maturing to 20-30 feet tall and 10-15 feet wide.

Four Seasons of Color

Most redbuds are at their best for a few weeks in spring. Forest Pansy keeps going. Pink or lavender blossoms open in spring alongside dark red-purple leaves, the heart-shaped foliage turns deep burgundy and holds that color all summer, and fall brings brilliant red and orange. Each season has its own show.

A Graceful, Spreading Specimen

Forest Pansy grows quickly into a graceful, spreading tree, and its trunk often divides, which gives it a natural, sculptural look. At 20-30 feet tall and 10-15 feet wide, it is a lovely specimen for the landscape, with enough presence to anchor a bed or stand alone as a focal point.

Heat-Tolerant Color You Can Count On

This variety is heat-tolerant, which helps its rich foliage color hold up through the summer. It is a good fit for gardeners who want the beauty of a redbud with more going on after the flowers fade.
