Gorgeous Blends of ColorThe Flame Thrower® Redbud (Cercis canadensis 'NC2016-2') is a tree you'll want to grow even if only for the incredible beauty of its heart-shaped foliage. New leaf growth emerges in a strong burgundy red, then shifts to yellow and finally green as it matures. Because each leaf transitions at its own pace, the branches show a striking mix of four to five colors at once, creating a vibrant, ever-changing display from spring through fall. It's a stunning way to bring bold, seasonal color to your garden or landscape. Easy to Care ForWhile it shows off as an impressive feature, this tree is actually easy to grow and fast-growing, making it a great choice for gardeners of all levels. The tree adapts well to a range of soil types and conditions, and its upright, branching habit makes it perfect for both small and large spaces. Beautiful BloomIn early spring, you’ll also enjoy clusters of reddish-purple, pea-like flowers that bloom directly on the branches. They're beautiful on the tree, but we also love clipping a few stems to bring indoors for unique, natural décor.Plant ID: PP31260
