Cercis canadensis, commonly known as the Eastern Redbud, is a large deciduous shrub or small tree native to eastern North America. It grows 20-30 feet tall with a spread of 26-33 feet, featuring a short, often twisted trunk and dark, smooth bark that becomes scaly with age. The tree is known for its heart-shaped leaves and showy magenta pink flowers that bloom in clusters, attracting long-tongued bees. It produces flattened, dry, brown pea-like pods and is cultivated in parks and gardens for its ornamental value.
