Description

A handsome purple leaf variety of redbud. The new foliage emerges a
shimmering purple red and changes to a more subdued color as the season
progresses. Before the leaves appear the tree is covered with purple-pink
flowers, darker than the species. As Forest Pansy matures, it takes on a vase
shape and tends to branch low on the trunk.
