(Texas Redbud)
Texas redbud is a variant of the common redbud found in Texas and Oklahoma. It is much more tolerant of heat and drought than eastern redbuds. Its waxy leaves are smaller and somewhat curled, adaptations that allow it to thrive in full sun and withstand drier soil conditions. It is almost always a large, multi-stemmed shrub or small tree.
In spring, before leaves emerge, prolific clusters of sweet pea-like flowers cover the branches tightly in colors that range from pink to white. These are...

(Oklahoma Redbud, Texas Redbud)
Texas redbud is a variant of the common redbud, found in Texas and Oklahoma and more adapted to heat and drought. The cultivar 'Oklahoma' is an outstandingly tough and heavy flowering selection, widely adapted and tolerant of heat, humidity and sun.
The shiny, heart-like leaves are thick and waxy. It is sometimes a multi-stemmed shrub, usually a tree. In spring, before leaves emerge, clusters of sweet pea-like, rosy wine-red flowers cover the branches thickly. These are followed by dark brown...

Believed to be the most drought tolerant of the Texas redbud cultivars, 'Sanderson' is a vigorous performer with a slightly more compact habit than standard forms. Its extra waxy leaves are also smaller and have notably wavy margins.

(Chinese Redbud)
Larger in leaf and flower than eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis), this Chinese native makes a beautiful shrub or small tree for sun or light shade. The bright purple-pink pea-flowers cluster along the upright gray branches in mid-spring, before the large, glossy, heart-shaped leaves emerge. Abundant green seedpods follow the flowers, maturing to brown. The leaves turn dull yellow in fall.
Less cold hardy than eastern redbud, Cercis chinensis shares its preference for well-drained,...

(Avondale Redbud, Chinese Redbud)
When 'Avondale' came onto the scene, its small size meant that the beauty of the Chinese redbud would fit spaces and gardens too small for the species. A deciduous shrub or small tree native to China and Japan, Cercis chinensis is found thriving in a wide range of growing conditions. One aspect of its beauty lies in its leaves: rounded hearts that hang gracefully from fine, reddish stems. They are held on the upright gray branches of a vase shaped shrub or multiple-trunk tree.
The gorgeous...

(California Redbud, Western Redbud)
The drought tolerance and intense color make western redbud a top notch tree for dry gardens. It is native to the hill country of California, Arizona and Utah where the dry season can result in no rainfall for as long as six months a year. It prefers conditions from the toe of west facing foothill exposures to middle elevations. This prized member of the dry garden is a multi-stemmed tree in the wild, branching off a large underground woody crown. Its distinctive large heart-shaped leaves are often...

(Chain Flowered Redbud, Pendulous Redbud)
Having the pretty heart-shaped foliage common among all redbuds, this species is unique with its pendent clusters of light pink flowers in mid-spring. Chain flowered redbud is an attractive decidious tree from western China that has a rounded canopy, pretty as a dual-purposed specimen flowering and small shade tree in the landscape.
The grayed sandy brown bark of the branches becomes less interesting in mid-spring once the pastel pink flower buds and glossy light green new leaves emerge. Leaves...
