Cercis canadensis ‘Forest Pansy’ is a deciduous, flowering tree featuring vibrant, spring pink blooms and heart-shaped purple foliage. Fall color is shades of yellow, orange, bronze, and red-purple. Flowers appear on bare branches. It can be low-branching or as a standard tree. It develops a rounded, vase shape, decurrent (not a single central leader) habit. Excellent understory tree, patio tree, specimen tree, woodland border. Non-invasive roots allow it to be planted near structures and sidewalks. Thrives in full sun to partial shade; afternoon shade prevents summer foliage scorch in hot climates. Deep shade reduces flowering. It needs regular water when new, moderately drought-tolerant once fully established. It is highly adaptable to clay, loam, sand, or silt. Prefers fertile, moist, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.5 to 8.0. Deer-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to -20°F.
