Eastern Whitebud
The Eastern Whitebud tree, Cercis canadensis alba, is best known for their profuse white pea-like flowers. The heart-shaped leaves of this redbud tree are 3-5 across and its fruit are brown flat pods about 2-3 long.  The trunk of this small tree usually branches close to the ground resulting in a spreading flat-topped to rounded crown. Soon after your Whitebud blooms, light green, perfectly heart shaped leaves will emerge. This forms the perfect backdrop to enhance the stunning blossoms color. Eastern Whitebud trees grow best in full sun to light shade with moist, well-drained, deep soil. This small deciduous tree is adaptable to other soil types but will not grow well in permanently wet or poorly drained soil. It is used as an ornamental or patio tree.
