Spring Hill Nurseries Black Pearl Redbud (Cercis) Live Bareroot Ornamental Tree Lavender Blooms (1-Pack)

Black Pearl Redbud welcomes spring with a generous peppering of lavender blooms all up and down its bare branches. The blooms are followed by purple leaves that are so dark they look black. Smooth, heart-shaped and leathery, the leaves have a glowing luster in sunlight that makes them shine like black pearls. As native understory trees, redbuds are shade tolerant. This means you can put Black Pearl just about anywhere in your landscape. However, more sunlight will yield more vivid color. When determining the best placement for this lovely tree, expect a mature height of 20 ft. and a 25 ft. spread.
