The Cercis Canadensis 'Ruby Falls' Weeping Redbud Tree is a stunning dwarf ornamental, prized for its cascading branches, purple foliage, and vibrant seasonal color changes. In early spring, hot pink flowers bloom across its weeping branches, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. As the season progresses, deep purple heart-shaped leaves unfurl, transitioning to crimson and green by late summer, and a brilliant golden-yellow in fall. Even in winter, its gnarled bark and dark red seed pods add interest. Compact and perfect for small spaces, the Ruby Falls Redbud grows to 6-8 ft, tall and 5-6 ft. wide, with a moderate growth rate of 1-2 ft. per year. This versatile tree thrives in USDA zones 5-9 and adapts to various soil types, preferring well-draining, slightly acidic soil. It's low maintenance, drought-tolerant once established, and resistant to most pests and diseases. For best results, plant in full sun to partial shade. While it flourishes in full sun, it tolerates shade, especially in warmer climates. Planting is simple: dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, water thoroughly, and mulch to retain moisture. Pruning isn't essential but helps maintain shape and increase flower production. The Ruby Falls Redbud looks beautiful in flower beds or paired with companions like daylilies and hydrangeas. It's a striking tree that offers year-round beauty with minimal effort, making it ideal for any gardener seeking a unique, easy-care ornamental.
