Description
Commonly known as the Judas tree, it is an eye-catching deciduous tree. Originating from the Mediterranean region, this small to medium-sized tree bears an abundance of vibrant, magenta-pink flowers along its older wood branches in early spring before the emergence of its heart-shaped leaves. The striking blossoms create a stunning contrast against the smooth, grey bark. Purplish pods appear in the autumn and remain on the tree through the winter. Height 8-12m.
Grow in well drained soil in full sun or partial shade.
