Cercis: Judas or Red Bud 



Very early in Spring the leafless branches 

 and twigs of these small trees or shrubs are 

 clothed in a thick mist of delicate deep pink 

 flowers. Planted among other early-blooming 

 trees they produce fine efi"ects. They are 

 equally valuable for planting in groups or 

 individually. Their radiant flower masses are 

 followed by glossy foliage. 



Cercis canadensis. American Red Bud. 

 (L). A slender, tall-growing shrub, finally 

 attaining the proportions of a tree.

C. Japonica. Japan Judas. (S). Early 

 in the Spring the beauty of this plant is 

 scarcely surpassed by any other shrub, due to 

 the profusion of delicate pink flowers which 

 are lined along each small twig. The large, 

 glossy, heart-shaped leaves make it almost as 

 beautiful during the Summer months.
