Plant Care

Thrives in full sun to partial shade, providing at least 6 hours of sunlight daily for optimal blooming. Preferably morning sun and afternoon shade. Suited for hardiness zones 4-9, depending on the variety.
Redbuds require regular watering during their first growing season to help establish strong roots. Once established, they are relatively drought-tolerant, so water them deeply but infrequently, allowing the top 2 to 3 inches of soil to dry between waterings.
This is a pet friendly plant.
