Cercis canadensis The Rising Sun is a small deciduous tree or large shrub valued for its spring display of small pink, pea-like flowers on bare branches, followed by large heart-shaped leaves that emerge golden-orange and mature to fresh lime green through summer. Grow in full sun or light shade in a sheltered spot with moist but well-drained, moderately fertile soil; an excellent specimen for adding spring blossom and vibrant foliage interest in Irish gardens.
To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
