Golden Falls®

Cercis canadensis

As its name suggests, Golden Falls is a weeping columnar Cercis, covered from top to bottom with large golden green leaves.

In winter the narrow pendulous skeleton of branches is a feature in its own right, while in late spring the profusion of tiny dark pink flowers clothe the bare branches.

Golden Falls looks great on its own in a small space, or can be used to line a drive.
