Info:AMERICAN REDBUD
Cercis Canadensis
A handsome shrub or small tree valued for very early bloom. This is the state tree of Oklahoma. Easy to cultivate and rarely needing pruning, coupled with purplish pink blooms makes this a great landscape plant.
Redbuds don't like heavy or wet soils and do best in light shade in an open textured, sandy loam. Plant container grown or balled trees in the spring.
They don't transplant well as they have long tap root that can cause problems when severed during removal from ground. Container grown or balled trees are best.
The American Redbud, which is hardy over most of the country, rarely grows over 20 feet. It has three inch pods, heart shaped leaves that turn yellow in fall, and pea-like, rose purple flowers that blossom in spring before the leaves appear.
Some varieties have white or double flowers.
Washington Hawthorn (Crataegus phaenopyrum)
A deciduous tree from the Rose Family (Rosaceae)
Washington Hawthorn, the last of the Hawthorns to flower, is found in the wild throughout portions of the eastern and southern United States, but only rarely in the woods and fields of Ohio, concentrated in the extreme mid-eastern and southwestern counties of the state. However, it is extensively planted in urban landscapes as an ornamental tree noted for its white flowers in spring and orange-red fruits in autumn and winter. Wildlife relish the abundant small fruits, which may hang on the trees into late January if they are not eaten. Washington Hawthorn may reach 20 feet tall by 15 feet wide when found in the open, often with a multitrunked and arching growth habit at maturity. As a member of the Rose Family, it is related to the Serviceberries, Chokeberries, Crabapples, Plums, Cherries, Pears, and Roses, as well as the many other Hawthorn species and hybrids.
