Planning to install this yourself? We recommend a size 15 Gallon or smaller for DIY installations. These sizes do not require any offloading equipment.
Any tree or shrub that is sized by HEIGHT or CAL (Caliper- size where the trunk meets the root flare) is delivered with a large root ball wrapped in burlap (B&B). They are typically 1000+ LBS per plant. They will require heavy equipment to install. Installation is not included in the price of the plant. We highly recommend adding the ServeScape ‘One-Click’ Installation service (must be added at the cart page) for material of this size, or working with a contractor that can provide equipment for installation.

For any tree or shrub that is sized larger than 10’ HEIGHT or 3” CAL, the customer will be required to provide offloading equipment or a contractor to offload unless paying for installation through ServeScape. We will coordinate delivery with you so that your contractor can have equipment ready upon your plant's arrival!

The Eastern Redbud typically grows to a height of 20 to 30 feet with a spread of 25 to 35 feet. It has a rounded to vase-shaped canopy and develops a multi-stemmed trunk. The heart-shaped leaves are medium green in color and turn yellow in the fall, adding a touch of autumn beauty to the landscape.

One of the most captivating features of the Eastern Redbud is its profusion of flowers. Clusters of small, pea-like flowers cover the branches in early spring, creating a breathtaking display. These flowers are not only visually appealing but also attract pollinators like bees and butterflies.

This Redbud variety thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. It is relatively low-maintenance and adapts well to various soil types. Regular watering during dry periods is beneficial, especially when the tree is young and establishing its root system.
