Cercis Canadensis Lavender Twist CLT 130 18-20 A.F.

Cercis canadensis 'Lavender Twist' is a popular small weeping variety of Judas Tree (also called Eastern Redbud). The long weeping branches of 'Lavender Twist' have a gentle attractive twist and in spring they are smothered in a copious crop of lilac-pink, pea-like flowers. The flowers stand out beautifully against the sculptural framework of dark bare branches. This is followed by mid-green, heart shaped foliage which looks particularly attractive covering the pendulous branches. In autumn, the foliage transforms to golden yellow.
