Notes

'White Pom Poms' Texas redbud (Cercis canadensis 'White Pom Poms') is a multi-stemmed tree for specimen planting, borders, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°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 rarely make it their first choice. It grows at a moderate rate.
