Cercis canadensis

View of our Eastern Redbud in its fall beauty. A friend reminded me of the joyful colour of the redbud in the fall. It is truly magnificent in the spring with its bloom of tiny pink flowers along the branches but in the fall the heart-shaped leaves reveal a yellow translucence. Her reminder affected the way I looks at the trees on my walks and in my yard.
