It’s early Spring in the Mid-Atlantic area of the U.S. and our American Redbud tree is just starting to bud! We planted a small twig about 8 years ago and the tree is now 10 feet tall! It may not be getting enough sun because the middle section of the tree does not flower. To improve the shape of the tree, we will prune a few of the lower branches.
If you have room for a small, colorful tree in your landscape, visit your local Home Depot, Lowe’s, online Burpee Gardening or eBay for their selection of American Redbud trees. To learn how to plant, fertilize and prune your way to a gorgeous garden, subscribe to our YouTube channel!
