▶ "Cercis canadensis —the eastern redbud— is a small deciduous tree, native to eastern North America. It typically grows to 20–30 feet tall (6–9 m) with a 26–33 foot spread (8–10 m). The leaves are heart-shaped or broadly ovate, two to five inches long. They come out of the bud folded along the line of the midrib, tawny green; when they are full-grown, they become smooth, dark green above, paler beneath. In autumn, they turn bright clear yellow."
