Ace of Hearts Redbud Tree

Cercis canadensis 'Ace of Hearts' is a compact, deciduous tree celebrated for its unique, stacked foliage and dwarf growth habit. In early spring, clusters of vibrant light-purple flowers bloom directly on the branches before the heart-shaped leaves emerge. Its dense, semi-glossy canopy creates a formal appearance without pruning, making it an ideal specimen for small gardens or urban spaces. This hardy variety thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil conditions.
