Decorate your space with one or more Vanilla Twist® Weeping Redbud Tree PP# 22744 (Cercis canadensis 'Vanilla Twist'). Each spring, as winter snow melts, you'll be delighted when the darling pea-shaped snowy white blooms take center stage!
Like its purple-blooming cousins, Vanilla Twist® blooms on bare gray, zig-zagging weeping branches. These early blooms support butterflies and beneficial and early-emerging pollinators with critical nectar! Soon after, the heart-shaped foliage emerges to grace the weeping branches. The leaves flutter on long petioles in every spring and summer breeze. They'll become a handsome backdrop during the summer months.
Elegant, contorted branches reach up and then cascade down to the ground. Let them share their lyrically romantic tale with you and all your garden visitors! Every tree grows into an individual with a memorable, freeform style all its own.
Landscape Application:
Create a magical setting for garden parties with these special modern trees! Spark conversations with this unique, white-blooming variety! They'll soothe away your dreary winter blues, too! Underplant Vanilla Twist® with white Crocus and Snowdrops for an enchanting display!
While a single specimen by your front entry or as a conversation piece near your back seating and gathering areas, multiple plants will amplify the Vanilla Twists® effect on your curb appeal! Plant three in an informal grouping on a raised berm, or around the curve of a water feature.
Plant one or more in large planters or patio containers so you can enjoy these weeping ornamentals anywhere! Balconies, front entries, and back decks all benefit from these space-saving beauties!
As an added benefit, your birds will appreciate the fall/winter seedpods, and bees and butterflies will likewise arrive for the spring flowers.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Redbuds are adaptable and are generally easy to grow! Plant your tree in a well-drained location with full sun to a touch of partial/afternoon shade if you live in a hotter climate. Provide new trees with regular moisture access and a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch.
Fertilize each spring with a flowering tree formula. Once established, your tree will only need supplemental moisture during extreme heat and drought conditions. Prune when needed in the spring as soon as the flowers have finished putting on their show.
White Redbuds are carefree trees that tolerate a variety of conditions, are seldom bothered by deer, and are very disease and pest-resistant.
- Grows in Full Sun or Partial Shade
- Well-Drained Soils
- Moderate Moisture Needs
- Prune Immediately After Flowering
- Widely Adaptable
- Deer Don't Prefer the Taste
As you can imagine, this special variety will be very popular! Please place your order for Vanilla Twist® Weeping Redbud just as soon as you can...we will sell out of our limited inventory in the twinkling of an eye.
