Budding up nicely on site, the Cercis stock is ready to pop with their wild looking flowers that look like dainty wingback slippers!
Flowering on bare stems, Cercis are a real springtime delight as once the exotic pea-like looking flowers are finished, the heart-shaped leaves pop out along the stems in shades of green, purple, cerise, yellows and multi-coloured splashes of foliage dependant on variety.
Cercis are popular with designers due to the shape, forms, foliage shape, emerging foliage colour, autumn foliage colour and general versatility as a small tree / large shrub focal point. Some varieties have twisted stems to add to the overall interest of the plant.
Bees like them too with Cercis flowering from April though to May / early June.
We currently have in stock, Ace of Hearts, Allet Cat, Appalchian Red, Forest Pansy, Hearts of Gold, Merlot, Royal White, Ruby Falls, The Rising Sun and Vanilla Twist.
