Description
Ruby Falls Redbud (Cercis canadensis 'Ruby Falls') is a captivating weeping deciduous tree prized for its bold spring color and graceful form. This compact ornamental tree makes a big impact in small spaces, reaching just 8 feet tall and 6 feet wide at maturity.

Ideal for full sun to part sun, this tree performs best in well-drained soil and is hardy in zones 5 to 9.
