Notes
'Seirb' Texas redbud (Cercis canadensis 'Seirb') is a multi-stemmed tree for specimen planting, borders, woodland gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in early to late spring, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. The tree grows at a moderate rate.
Pairs well with Wild ginger, False indigo, Witch hazel, and Switchgrass.
