Add strong contrast and reliable structure to your landscape with Black Pearl Redbud. This variety brings bold, deep maroon-purple foliage to the garden—a standout color that holds strong through summer. Before the leaves arrive, you'll enjoy a flush of lavender-pink blooms along the branches. It’s a striking look in early spring, and a sure sign that the season is shifting.
Standout Foliage Adds Lasting Contrast: This tree’s heart-shaped leaves emerge dark and stay rich in color, offering dramatic contrast next to lighter green plants. The foliage doesn’t fade in the heat, which makes it a reliable focal point well into the season.
Compact Form, Ideal for Smaller Landscapes: With a mature height of around 20 feet and a spread of 25 feet, Black Pearl maintains a manageable shape that works in tighter spaces. Its upright habit and even branching give it a refined silhouette, great for front yards, street plantings, or feature spots in mixed borders.
Tough, Adaptable, and Native: As a selection of the Eastern Redbud (Cercis canadensis), this variety is drought tolerant once established and shows good resilience in urban settings. Native to North America, its blooms support pollinators and provide seasonal interest with minimal maintenance.
