Buy Kay's Early Hope Redbud online. Kay's Early Hope Redbud was named after famed North Carolina State's Women's Basketball coach, Kay Yow and introduced by J.C. Raulston Arboretum. This heavy pink blooming Chinese redbud is going to make your jaw drop when it blooms in early spring, as it is known to bloom earlier and longer than other redbud cultivars. These are followed by heart-shaped green leaves and will turn yellow in the fall.

Family: Fabaceae · Common Name: Redbud

Redbud is a fascinating genus of small trees with several species and many varieties and cultivars. Native to the eastern and southern US, Redbuds are scattered throughout the countryside’s and are one of the first trees to flower in early spring, along with Dogwoods. Redbuds require well draining soil even to the point of being rocky. If planted in wet or poorly draining soils the trees will decline in health rather quickly. Best planted high and dry!
