Description	Cercis canadensis  Cercis canadensis ‘Eastern Redbud’ originating from Eastern North America, is a large deciduous shrub or medium sized tree that makes a wonderful feature, shade tree or mass planted along driveways and avenue’s. In late spring before the foliage re-appears, the branches are covered with bright pink flowers. The leaves are large, glossy and heart shaped. The Eastern Redbud is frost hardy, and can grow in sandy and clay soils, providing they are well drained. It is able to reach a mature height of 9m if unclipped.
