Common name: Ruby Falls Weeping Redbud
Description: This enchanting cultivar combines the weeping habit of 'Covey' with the stunning purple foliage of 'Forest Pansy' to create a truly spectacular small tree. Its graceful, pendulous branches cascade downward, forming an elegant umbrella-like shape. The heart-shaped leaves emerge a rich, glossy burgundy-purple in spring and maintain good colour throughout summer before turning yellow in autumn. In early spring, before the foliage appears, the bare branches become adorned with an abundance of lavender-pink, pea-like flowers that create a magnificent display. This compact weeping form adds dramatic architectural interest to gardens of all sizes.
