Quick Overview:

‘Appalachian Red’ is a red-flowered cultivar that was discovered growing along a road in Maryland. It typically grows to 15-25′ tall. Clusters of tiny, fuchsia-pink to red, pea-like flowers bloom for 2-3 weeks in early spring (April) before the foliage emerges. Heart-shaped foliage with pointed tips matures to a dull, dark blue-green in summer and turns yellow in fall.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
