Hearts of Gold Redbud is a colorful  native deciduous  tree with multiple trunks and a rounded crown.  Broad papery heart shaped leaves emerge red and turns gold that softens through summer while the shaded leaves turning green. A heavy profusion of lavender purple flowers that bloom on bare branches in early spring before the foliage comes in  attracting butterflies.  Prefers partial sun and rich well-drained soils with consistent moisture.  Hearts of Gold is resistant to summer burning

Cercis canadensis is an important host for the Henry's Elfin Butterfly and supports a specialized bee- the Southeast Blueberry Bee.  Its nectar is an early food source for several butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds.  The seedpods are enjoyed by birds and wildlife.
