Blankets of Fuchsia Blooms Welcome Spring

Why Eastern Redbud Trees?

Prized for its vibrant, purple-pink easter flowers that welcome the warmer months, the Eastern Redbud marks the change from winter to spring. In fact, it’s one of the first trees to bloom each year and it blooms on old wood, offering a breath of fresh air after the cold season.

But despite its delicate appearance, the Eastern Redbud is incredibly strong. It can thrive as far west as California, in parts of Florida, and even up north. It’s hardy down to -20 degrees and resists ice damage with ease. Plus, it’s adaptable to most soil types. You get its rounded, dense canopy, unique branching, and four seasons of color, with leaves that change throughout the season…without the upkeep and guesswork.

Even better is the Eastern Redbud’s ability to fit into smaller landscapes. Regardless of the space in your garden, you get the Redbud’s blankets of blooms, vibrant foliage, and unique spreading silhouette. Nothing can stop the Redbud from delivering blazing color in spring, summer, and fall.

Eastern Redbud

Not as bushy as I expected but I hope it grows fast and fills out.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Kathy, we’re sorry to hear the tree wasn’t as full as you expected. Since we’re a nursery, our trees are often shipped in their younger form to ensure safe delivery and healthy establishment. That said, we completely understand the initial disappointment. With time and care, your Eastern Redbud should fill out beautifully. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need guidance.

Eastern Red Bud Tree

I ordered this tree to replace one that I lost in a recent storm. The new tree is fine. I do wish it had a thicker trunk because it is now in a very windy location. I will add tree stakes to keep the wind from snapping it.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHello Don! Thank you for sharing your feedback. As a nursery, we grow and ship younger trees that are still developing, which allows them to adapt and establish strong roots in their new environment. We understand the importance of trunk thickness in windy areas, and staking is a great idea to provide extra support while the tree matures. We are glad to hear your new Eastern Redbud is doing well so far. Please feel free to reach out if you ever need help.
