Red Bud 
Judas Tree or Redbud 
This old variety of distinctly American 
origin greeted the first settlers from the 
edge of the forests. Fable tells us that

when its blooms first come out. Later 
they turn into beautiful rosy-purple flow- 
ers. Blossoms in April, before the leaves 
appear. (15-20 feet)
