Flame Thrower Redbud
Picture this: you walk out your door on a crisp spring morning to a breathtaking array of reds, oranges, yellows, and greens, all encapsulated within one tree. This vision doesn’t have to be imaginary, for with the Flame Thrower Redbud Tree, such becomes a reality.
Like your favorite Eastern Redbud, you can look forward to sweet pink flowers emerging in early spring, often before anything else is blooming!
Beyond the blooms, the classic red heart-shaped foliage on your typical Redbud Tree takes on a new form in the Redbud Flame Thrower. Foliage emerges a deep burgundy red in late spring and experiences an ombre transformation from bright yellow to green at maturity. But the show’s not over yet! These rainbow leaves deliver vibrant orange hues in the fall for a grand finale!
The Flame Thrower® Redbud reaches a mature height of 20 feet tall with a spread of about 15 feet wide, making it the ideal option for smaller landscape projects. These gorgeous specimen trees enjoy conditions of full sun to part shade and well-draining soils.
