It's nearly impossible to resist the charm of this tiny, adorable tree. With its amazing spring and fall color and unique umbrella shape, the Lavender Twist® Weeping Redbud tree (Cercis canadensis 'Covey') packs a lot of interest into a small plant!

The impact is accentuated by the weeping, twisted branches tipping towards the ground. This tiny tree explodes in the spring with electric lavender flower clusters cascading along the bare, weeping branches in early spring.

You'll be amazed how quickly hummingbirds and butterflies will flock to its fragrant branches. They'll adore the early nectar source!

As the season transitions into summer, the density of the Lavender Twist®s canopy becomes another very attractive feature. Large, dark, heart-shaped leaves cover the plant all through the growing season.

The leaves have a glossy upper surface and will shimmer in the sunlight. The brilliant yellow fall color adds another highlight to the performance.

No matter how large - or how small - your landscape is, there is always room for a Lavender Twist® or two.

We sell out of this fabulous tree every single year. If you see it in stock, order today to avoid disappointment!

How to Use Lavender Twist® Weeping Redbud in the Landscape

It's easy to use this versatile, endearing tree in many places in the landscape. It makes an incredible focal point as a living sculpture. It can also be used as a very effective accent tree.

Use Lavender Twist® to block out unwanted low views in the garden. You can think of it as a cute, little screen to give strategic privacy.

You'll love the way this pretty plant helps you relax on your patio. Plant it behind a loveseat or near a side door to boost your sense of space. Even if you can't plant it in the ground, it will do well when grown in a container. Use one of the enormous commercial-grade containers available now for decades of enjoyment.

Include one or more in your front yard. It's wonderful as a small tree in a foundation planting. Try it at the corner of your house, situated 15 feet away from the exterior wall. It will be a graceful accent to welcome guests.

Plant several Lavender Twist® along a rocky slope, then, simply allow the branches to grow long and cascade down to soften the wall. This tree can add a bold touch of drama without much extra care beyond providing water as needed.

Or, use 3, 5, or 7 in a berm (large raised mound) planting. We would advise grouping them into smaller clusters for the most natural look. If you use 7, for instance, try a group of 3 in a loose triangle. Then, give breathing room between another group of 4.

This tree has such a sculptural look with its twisting and turning branches. Give each one some breathing room with at least 10 feet between each plant.

Before you plant, draw out your plan on paper. Once your plants arrive, take another moment to place each tree while it's still in the container.

You'll also want to study each of your plants. Decide which trees you'll partner up together. Decide which direction you want each tree to face.

You really, truly can't go wrong or make a mistake with the Lavender Twist® Weeping Redbud.

For a unique screen, plant a row of them 6 - 8 feet apart and let the branches grow down to the ground. This will be an interesting feature all year long. Even in winter, the zigs and zags of the branches will draw your eye.

No matter where you place them, they will look amazing and add so much character. Order now and enjoy!

#ProPlantTips for Care

Lavender Twist® Weeping Redbud tree does require well-drained soil. If puddles remain on your soil after a rain or watering, consider elevating the planting area. Add 18 - 24 inches of soil above the native soil line and plant your tree directly in that mound.

Please don't plant your tree too low in the soil. For container plants, plant at the same level as the nursery soil line. For bareroot trees, look for the color change (soil line) and plant at that depth.

For best results in warm, dry climates, give protection from the hot afternoon sun. Provide a 3-inch deep layer of mulch. You'll start about 2 inches away from the trunk and apply mulch thickly all around the tree to a distance of 3 feet outside the canopy. This will keep the root system nice and cool.

Give it regular summer watering. This is especially important in hardiness Zones 9 - 10.

In the fall, you'll appreciate how quickly the leaves drop once the plant goes dormant. This makes fall cleanup a breeze.

Staking Tips for Young Trees

This beautiful plant naturally grows as a 5-foot-high groundcover, spilling over the ground if left to its own devices. It will spread out over a wide area and can cascade over walls.

But the expert growers at Nature Hills will field train the plant into a small tree with a sturdy trunk that grows upright. The head of the tree will be comprised of downward cascading branches.

Staking Lavender Twist® as a young plant will help continue to develop the height of the trunk. Train it to grow as tall as you'd like.

We do recommend that you keep it staked until the trunk is at least 4 to 5 feet tall. You can even keep it tied to a 10-foot bamboo pole until the trunk is 8 feet tall.

Check the tying tape regularly to ensure it doesn't grow too tight. Retie if you need to as your tree trunk thickens up in caliper.

You can also influence the look of the branches with easy pruning techniques.

Pruning Tips for Lavender Twist® Weeping Redbud

Prune your tree after flowering to direct the spring growth and allow airflow into the canopy.

As the plant matures, fall pruning is required to remove dead, weak, or crossed limbs inside the dense canopy. This will help maintain good airflow.

You also need to decide how long you want to let the branches grow.

Some people allow the cascading limbs to grow to the ground, where they spread out as ground cover around the base of the tree. This bold look grabs attention in any landscape, especially if you have a slope or rock wall.

Lavender Twist® also looks incredible when the straight trunk is exposed. You can prune the lowest branches right back to the main trunk. You can create a manicured umbrella tree by pruning the weeping laterals at the same length all around.

Any way you want to grow it, Lavender Twist® creates a spectacular look in the garden. Place your order now!

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!
