Cercis canadensis 'Texas White'

(Eastern Redbud) New to us, Cercis canadensis 'Texas White' is a spectacular small tree once established with masses of pure white flowers in late spring which appear on the bare branches before the leaves emerge.

When the leaves do emerge as or shortly after the flowers go over, they are large dark green and heart-shaped through the summer, turning shades of yellow and orange before they fall in autumn.

Best flower display once established if planted in a position with plenty of sun and ideally a little shelter from strong winds.
