The Judas Tree (Cercis)
The Judas tree (Cercis) is a tree with exceptionally beautiful flowers. It does not bloom on new twigs but on bare branches (including older branches). This unique blooming pattern makes it a striking sight.
The Judas tree blooms in spring before the tree produces leaves, causing it to light up in the spring. The flowers are pink/purple in color.
