Cercis canadensis 'Northern Herald' (Redbud)

Northern Herald® Eastern Redbud
Eastern Redbud

Northern Herald® brings bright spring color with a profusion of pink flowers that cover the branches before the foliage fully emerges. Its rounded form and dark green, leathery leaves provide a strong presence in the landscape throughout the growing season.

Selected for northern gardens, this hardy redbud handles heat and wind well and produces less fruit than many other redbuds. The spring flowers attract butterflies, while the branching structure provides shelter for birds.
