Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Chinese Redbud - Cercis chinensis 'Faerie Queen'
Few ornamental trees command attention in early spring the way 'Faerie Queen' does, bare branches smothered in deep pink blossom before a single leaf emerges. A refined, compact specimen that delivers seasonal drama and year-round structural elegance on prestige properties.
Why Faerie Queen Chinese Redbud
Spring flowering impact: Deep pink blooms erupt directly from bare branches in early spring, creating a striking floral display before foliage appears.
Compact specimen scale: Reaching 4 to 6 metres, it sits comfortably as a feature tree without dominating the surrounding landscape.
Year-round structure: An elegant, refined branching silhouette provides architectural interest well beyond the flowering season.
Heart-shaped canopy foliage: Fresh green leaves follow flowering, softening the form through summer and autumn.
Proven reliability: Consistent annual flowering with minimal intervention once established in suitable conditions.
Ideal Applications
Prestige feature planting: Positioned as a standalone specimen, it anchors a landscape with seasonal colour and refined form.
Formal courtyard settings: Compact scale and clean structure suit architecturally considered spaces where proportion matters.
Avenue or grove planting: Multiple specimens planted in sequence amplify the spring display and create cohesive landscape rhythm.
Lawn and open border placement: Isolating the tree against open turf allows the full flowering silhouette to be appreciated without competition.
Specimen & Installation
