A rather surprising variety of Canadian Redbud. This looks like it would require shade, but it seems to do well in strong sunlight. Nevertheless, this is a difficult plant to grow which may take several years for it's roots to establish so that the leaves won't burn. Good drainage without too-dry soil Slower growing than its fully green parent, it may eventually make 15-20'.  Average but not soggy soil.  Zones 4-9 River Rock Nursery is a retail, mail order nursery, also open daily. 19310 SE Hwy 224 - Clackamas, Oregon 97015 --- (503) 658-4047 Gretchen@riverrocknursery.com
