Photo of Cercis Covey or Lavender Twist (Redbud)
Cercis canadensis Covey aka Lavender Twist - 'Covey’ is a very small weeping cultivar noted for its absence of an upright leader and for its dense umbrella-shaped crown with contorted stems and arching to pendulous branches. If staked and trained, it may eventually rise to 8-10’ tall. If not staked, it may never exceed 5’ in height. Clusters of tiny, lavender-pink, pea-like flowers bloom for 2-3 weeks in early spring (April) before the foliage emerges. Heart-shaped foliage with pointed tips emerges in spring with red tinting, matures to a dull, dark blue-green and finally turns yellow in fall. ‘Covey’ is now commonly sold by nurseries today under the trade name of Lavender Twist. Family : Fabaceae
