Care
Redbud trees prefer well-drained soil and benefit from regular watering, specifically during dry times. They should be trimmed to retain shape and clear dead limbs. In early spring, they should be fertilized. They are relatively low-maintenance and resistant to pests.
Exposure
The Redbud Tree flourishes in complete sun to shade. For best growth and flowering, it favors 4 to 6 hours of total sunlight daily. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade can help prevent leaf scorch.
