Weeping Branches

The Ruby Falls Redbud is endowed with long, weeping branches that create a vibrant cascade of Fuschia flowers in the early spring blooming period. These blossoms attract garden pollinators such as butterflies and honey bees which just give an extra touch of natural beauty to your landscape. Keep the branches trimmed to mimic a traditional tree shape or allow the limbs to grow to full length so they sweep across the ground beneath. Any way you decide to style this tree it's sure to make a vibrant centerpiece from spring through summer.

Burgundy Foliage

After flowers die back in mid-spring, rich burgundy foliage takes its place. This creates an interesting contrast to traditional landscape plants with green leaves. Their heart-shaped leaves offer aesthetic appeal all throughout the warm months of spring and summer but will die back in the plant's dormant period (fall through winter). When absent of foliage, you'll be able to admire their intricate cascade of weeping branches in winter!

Plant Care Tips

Cercis canadensis

Caring for your Ruby Falls Redbud is just as simple as growing any other tree and does not require special treatment. Below are some helpful tips to get started planting and caring for these Weeping Redbud trees.

Ruby Falls Weeping Redbud prefers to grow in bright, full sunlight. They are capable of growing with partial shade but this may impact growth speed.
When planting, dig a hole that is roughly twice the diameter and depth of your plant's root ball. Using a slightly acidic potting mix will help with flower production, but it is not necessary.
Water every 2-3 days for the first month after planting to help the roots establish in their new home. Refrain from watering after rainfall to avoid overwatering.
Keep soil lightly moist after roots are established, but not overly saturated.
Apply a slow-release fertilizer before spring to encourage root, flower, and foliage growth. Apply once per year!
