Tropica Love Tree - Judas Tree (Cercis siliquastrum)

The Love Tree, also known as the Judas Tree or Cercis siliquastrum, is a remarkable ornamental shrub that delights with its unique floral display in May. This hardy, perennial plant originates from the Mediterranean region and has a long history dating back to ancient times. The Love Tree is distinguished by its unique cauliflory, where the flowers appear directly on the trunk, setting it apart from many other plants. The heart- or kidney-shaped leaves take on a striking red color in spring and autumn, adding extra visual appeal to the tree. Bees are attracted to the bright pink flowers, which often bloom before the first leaves appear and contribute to pollination. The Love Tree is suitable for cultivation in pots as well as in the open ground and prefers bright to sunny locations, where it can withstand wind, heat, and drought effectively.
