Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

The Lavender Twist® Redbud, also known as Cercis canadensis 'Covey', is a beautiful weeping tree that adds a unique touch to any landscape. It is a cultivar of the Eastern Redbud tree and is prized for its cascading branches and vibrant pink flowers.

The Lavender Twist® Redbud typically grows to a height of 6 to 8 feet with a spread of 8 to 10 feet. Its weeping branches create a graceful, cascading effect, making it a stunning focal point in gardens or as a specimen tree. In the spring, it produces clusters of small, rosy-pink flowers that cover the branches before the leaves emerge. The flowers attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, adding to the tree's charm.

This Redbud variety thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. It is relatively low-maintenance and does not require much pruning. However, you can trim any dead or damaged branches to maintain its shape and overall health.
