Why? Because when I see redbuds blooming, I know spring is right around the corner!
Technically known as the Eastern redbud
(Cercis canadensis), they are one of the few flowering trees that also tolerate shade. I love the wispy gracefulness of the limbs, which bare their delicate blossoms in a seemingly random fashion. With no foliage to obstruct the view, their beautiful pink blossoms are exquisite against the background of a bright blue sky!
