Description

Avondale Redbud is the most showy of all the redbuds, this selection from Dunkin & Davies in New Zealand produces fantastic deep purple flowers along its branches and even on the main trunk. Grown as a single stem or multi-stemmed tree, it flowers at an early age. In early spring blooming can knock your socks off.

Water Saving Tip:

Watering every day results in shallow roots.

Instead, water deeply every few days using the Cycle and Soak method (two or more short run times, each separated by about an hour).
