Spectacular Colors
This fabulous new redbud is giving many plant lovers a big case of Gotta-Have-It! The leaf colors of the Rising Sun™ Redbud Tree (Cercis canadensis 'JN2’) are truly spectacular. New growth opens in warm apricot and orange, shifts to vivid gold, and finally matures to bright green. And the show doesn’t stop after spring. With a little watering during dry spells, it will keep flushing fresh tangerine-colored growth all summer and into fall. In early spring, before the leaves emerge, small, bright pink flowers cover the branches—beckoning butterflies and early-arriving hummingbirds to your garden.
Great For Small Spaces
Its compact, rounded shape makes it ideal for small spaces, and it’s perfect for borders, focal points, or as a standout specimen tree. From a distance, the heart-shaped leaves shimmer like clusters of blooms, layered beautifully along strong, upright branches.
Beautiful, but Tough
Exceptionally tough, this redbud withstands drought, heat, poor soil, and urban pollution. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, and its foliage is impervious to sunburn, even in intense afternoon sun. As the season progresses, seed pods develop and attract a variety of songbirds, including goldfinches, quail, chickadees, and cardinals.
