Description
Cercis siliquastrum, also known as the 'Judas Tree', is a fabulous specimen that will add gorgeous colour to your garden. A deciduous tree that has ancient origins from Southern Europe and Western Asia, it produces lovely heart-shaped foliage and in the spring, the most gorgeous clusters of vivid pink flowers. Easy to grow and maintain, Cercis is drought tolerant and will thrive in most soils in either full sun or partial shade. Delivered as an established plant in a 9cm pot, growing to a height of 12m (40ft) and spread of 7m (23ft) in 20 years.
Top Tips
Cercis can be left to grow naturally, or pruned to control its size and shape.
Care Information
  • Dig a square hole as deep as the roots and approximately 1.5x as wide.
  • Add Mycorrhizal fungi to the planting hole to help the plant establish quicker.
  • Spread the roots gently and place into the planting hole.
  • Mix well rotted compost or manure with the soil taken from the hole and then use to backfill around the tree.
  • Keep well-watered until established.
  • No routine pruning is necessary apart from removing any twisted, damaged or dead branches in early spring.
