Quick Overview:

‘Forest Pansy’ is a purple-leaved cultivar of the redbud tree. Fall color is variable, but often includes attractive shades of reddish-purple and orange. Commonly called eastern redbud, is a deciduous, often multi-trunked understory tree with a rounded crown that typically matures to 20-30′ tall with a slightly larger spread. It is particularly noted for its stunning pea-like rose-purple flowers which bloom profusely on bare branches in early spring (March-April) before the foliage emerges.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
