Aurelian Redbud - Cercis canadensis ‘Aurelian’
Redbuds flower in a way that few trees do. The buds break directly out of bare grey wood, along the branches and even on the trunk itself, so the entire framework turns pink weeks before any leaves appear. 'Aurelian' is a named selection of the eastern redbud, Cercis canadensis, and shares the species' broad heart shaped leaves, vase shaped multi stemmed frame and modest scale. It suits a temperate garden where a small deciduous tree has to earn its keep in more than one season.
Why Aurelian Redbud
Flowering on Old Wood: Blossom emerges straight from trunk and branches, not just from the shoot tips.
Heart Shaped Leaves: Broad, clean leaves give a distinctive summer texture unlike any other small tree.
Compact Frame: A vase shaped crown that stays within the bounds of a suburban garden.
Autumn Tone: Foliage softens to yellow before dropping in cool districts.
Pollinator Value: One of the earliest substantial nectar sources for bees in spring.
Ideal Applications
Small Garden Feature: Big spring impact from a tree that stays around 5m.
Courtyard or Entry: Multi stemmed structure gives close range winter interest.
Understorey Planting: Grows well beneath the high canopy of larger deciduous trees.
Mixed Border Anchor: Provides the upper storey in a layered perennial planting.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 2.5 to 3m in a planted row
Spacing (feature/avenue): 4 to 5m
Best Planting Season: Winter dormancy, roughly June to August
Soil & Drainage: Well drained, moderately fertile soil, avoiding waterlogged ground and any root disturbance after planting
Establishment Care: Water deeply once a week for the first two summers, more often in inland heat. Mulch out to the drip line, keep spades and cultivators away from the root zone, and prune only to remove crossing wood in late winter.
