Eastern Redbud : MN STRAIN 60-90cm (24-36") plant

(4 customer reviews)

$36.95

A lovely, flowering redbud tree is likely on many Canadian homeowners' wish list and, of course, all the more so for us who live north of Zone 6. In order to stack the winter survival rate in our favour we have selected the most cold-hardy version, and in the shrub form. This particular strain is grown from cuttings collected at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum.

Did you know those beautiful, rosy pink blossoms taste just as good as they look? Enjoy their nutty, sweat pea flavour when eaten raw in salads. Fritters or pancakes made with redbud blossoms are another tasty option. The seed pods are also edible when young and tender. Eastern redbuds are still a charming shrub even after the three-week flowering period is past. The glossy heart shaped foliage stays clean and dark green for the summer. When planted in an ideal, well-drained site these shrubs can reach 4-6m (13-20') in height and width.

    Arrived in great condition and it’s starting to bud up nicely

  2. Quang (verified owner) –

    It was five star rating, but I discounted one star. Because the shipping for some reason was not picked up and after a few days waiting I needed to make a call. By then the greenhouse just realized the situation and thing went well by then. The plant is in great health great shape so far. Thank you.

What is Orchard Grade?

An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.

What is a 2 year old tree?

A '2 year old tree' is one that has grown an extra season in our nursery field.

All our trees are planted in the field in the spring as rootstock. They are grafted in August of the 1st year. Most of our trees are dug out in November of the 2nd year. Some trees are in the ground for another season. We dig these in November of the 3rd year. These are considered to be '2 year old trees'.

A '2 year old tree' has bigger roots, a thicker trunk, and more branching (They might start fruiting a year earlier).
