I am so cross with myself. I had one very lovely Forest Pansy left at the shop and sold it to a young lady who was delighted with it after another customer waxed lyrical about its many attributes explaining what a great and beautiful tree it is. Now I wish I had brought it home for my own garden! Tomorrow I will be ordering more and snaffling one for myself I have just the spot for it. Cercis canadensis ‘Forest Pansy’ is a very elegant small ornamental tree growing to a height of 4 metres and 4 metres wide. At the start of spring clusters of small rose pink, pea-like flowers cover the entire tree followed by shiny reddish purple, heart shaped leaves. The leaves become quite large giving a very lush appearance. In summer the older, more sheltered foliage will harden off to a deep green creating a contrast with the vibrant new growth. Autumn turns the leaves a golden colour prior to them dropping to let the winter sun back in.
Forest Pansy can be used as a specimen tree or shrub, fence line screening, or just to add a splash of colour amongst your other shrubbery. It likes full sun or part shade, well drained fertile soil and needs mulch and summer water t
