Alley Cat is a new Redbud variety. It features dark pink pea-shaped flowers, which are borne on bare branches in April, before the leaves.
The main attraction is the very large rounded leaves, which are the size of a hand. When they emerge the leaves are a rosy / dark green but as spring progresses they are transformed with large abstract patches of white.
