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 Reading, Mind Opening
Format: Kindle
This is a terrifically interesting and entertaining book, which presented me with at least two blockbuster ideas that changed the way I think about the past. I'll get to those in a minute, but first a few general points. Charles Mann is a science journalist:who seems to specialize in BIG topics. His 2005 book ("1491", which argues that the pre-Columbian population of the Americas was much larger and more sophisticated than generally assumed), was very well received. I enjoyed it so much, and thought it so valuable a book, that I was very anxious to read "1493". "1493" lived up to my (high) expectations. Mann is remarkable writer, with an extraordinary ability to present very complex facts and ideas in way that's not just accessible to the lay reader, it's fun for the lay reader. This isn't to say that the book isn't carefully researched -- the text is followed by almost 100 pages of footnotes, and throughout he cites and acknowledges the scientists and others from whom he has drawn information. It's just that Mann manages to combine a myriad of facts and hypotheses into a compelling narrative. And he often puts this in very concrete terms, focussing on individual people, commodities or events. It adds up to a fascinating read. It is also a very important one, with implications for the future as well as about the past. Mann's subject in this book is the Columbian Exchange, the sudden movement of plants, microbes, animals and people between the eastern and western hemispheres after Columbus' voyage to the Americas in 1492. A well known effect of this was the eastern hemisphere adoption of western hemisphere foods (tomatoes, potatoes, chocolate, coffee, and on and on). Another effect that's only been recently come to be widely understood is the devastating impact on the pre-Columbian population of the Americas; as many as 80% died in the epidemics that followed the introduction of diseases to which they had no immunity. But the population die-off and the exchange of plant species are not the only effects of the Columbian Exchange. Mann's book explores the myriad ways in which the Exchange -- globablization -- has shaped the world of today. Two things I learned from the book struck me particularly. First, like most Americans of my generation (older) I learned in school that the colonization of the Americas was carried out by white people, who moved into a largely uninhabited continent. "1491" took care of the uninhabited: "1493" takes care of the white. Mann says that from 1500 to 1840, about 3.4 million white Europeans emigrated to the Americas. Over the same period, about 11.7 million captive Africans were sent to the Americas. Except for New England, much of the United States and most of Latin American was far more black than white. (And probably in 1840 still more Indian/Native American than anything else). The racial balance changed as white immigration ramped up and as millions upon millions of blacks died too young, but the picture of early America looks very different to me now. Secondly, Mann discussed at length the 19th century ecological disaster that engulfed China. I had always assumed that the floods that killed so many millions in China had always happened, and were the result of geography. There have indeed always been floods, but their severity and human cost grew logarithmically in the 19th century. New crops led to more food and to rising population growth, and at the same time to more potential cash crops, increasing the pressure on existing land holdings, and leading to vast land clearances. That made the floods far worse when they came, undermining the political structure and compounding China's problems. This was interesting not just a light on the past, but as a warning signal for the future. The review is already too long, so, to sum it up: Great book!! Read it!! Give it to friends and family!!

LOVED This Read! Blew Me Away
Format: Hardcover
What a fantastic read! Woah. All of the Americas have an extraordinary history. I was mesmerized from beginning to end. If you like knowing your history, you will love this book. Well researched and smartly written. Couldn't put it down. Books like this are why people love to read. If you think you know the Americas, you might be surprised to find that there's more, and be prepared for a bit of a shake up. This book was a real eye opener.

A Brave New World
Format: Hardcover
It wasn't quite what I expected, but Charles Mann leads the reader on a fascinating journey in the wake of Columbus, focusing mostly on the environmental impact of his "discovery" of the New World. Mann literally spans the globe, as the establishment of Spanish colonies in the Americas would have far reaching consequences. Most interesting to me was how silver came to be the currency of exchange, allow Spain to trade with China, when it established its trading outpost in the modern-day Philippines. Along with silver, came corn, rubber and potatoes which would radically alter the landscape of the world. Mann discusses how corn came to replace rice for many Chinese, and how rubber trees would be transplanted to Indochina, bringing with them unsuspected pests that would wreak havoc on ecosystems. In this sense, the book has similarities with Jared Diamond's but explores different terrain. One of the most interesting chapters was on the highly profitable mining of bird guano and how the British cornered the market in this new fertilizer. Mann describes how the shift to mono-cultures had a tremendous impact on agriculture. At first, these new crops seemed to solve much of the world's food shortages, but then as the Irish famine made all too painfully aware, putting all your "eggs in one basket" can lead to devastating consequences as an unforeseen blight wiped out much of Ireland's food supply. Mann also offers a long study on how slavery evolved and re-shaped the ethnic identity of many countries, particularly those in Central and South America. The miscegenation that took place, with particular focus on Brazil, reshaped cultural patterns and changed the political dynamics in these countries. He offers a number of intriguing case studies, and discussed the long term impact of this human cross-pollination. 1493 is a fascinating study and meditation on life after Columbus. We don't fully realize how rapidly the world changed after this fateful "discovery," and how continents became so interdependent, where before they had been relatively isolated from each other.
