The Rising Sun™ Redbud
Cercis canadensis 'JN2' (Rising Sun)
Experience a vibrant display of color with this compact redbud tree, perfect for any landscape. In early spring, its heart-shaped leaves emerge in stunning shades of deep apricot, orange, gold, and yellow, beautifully complementing the fading lavender-rose blooms. As the season progresses, the foliage transforms to a lush lime green in summer, before returning to a brilliant golden-orange in fall. Thriving in full sun, this variety showcases exceptional resistance to heat and burn, even during the hottest summer days. Mature size: 16' tall by 20' wide.
