Cercis canadensis - American Judas Tree - 100 cm high - 2L pot

Looking for an eye-catching spring bloomer for the garden? The Cercis canadensis, or American Judas Tree, offers a unique combination of early flowering, ornamental value and compact growth. Ideal for those who want to give their garden a natural accent, without taking up a lot of space.

Why choose Cercis canadensis?
✔ Blooms as early as April on the bare wood - striking purple-pink flowers on branch as well as stem
✔ Forms decorative pods that persist into winter
✔ Suitable as a compact tree or large shrub - also fits in smaller gardens
✔ Grows well in a sunny, sheltered spot with nutritious soil
✔ Very hardy (down to -30°C), requires little maintenance
✔ Available in sturdy 2-litre pot and 100 cm height: quick planting, quick result

Smartly combining?
Combine this solitary with evergreens such as Rhododendron, or contrast plants such as Cornus sericea or Hydrangea paniculata. For a flower-rich border in spring and summer, also add Allium or Salvia toe.

Tip for optimal flowering: Give extra water during dry periods. A warm summer encourages budding for the following year. Pruning? Preferably do this in June or July - air and light promote structure and flowering.
