{"product_id":"cercis-mexicana","title":"Mexican Redbud","description":"\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Mexican Redbud is a charming and drought-tolerant small tree that brings vibrant spring color and unique texture to the landscape. It is renowned for its profusion of deep magenta-pink, pea-like flowers that cover its bare branches in early spring. Following the blooms emerge its most distinctive feature: small, glossy, wavy-edged, heart-shaped leaves with a handsome blue-green to golden hue. This tough, heat-loving native is an excellent, multi-season choice for xeriscapes, small gardens, and as an understory tree.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProfusion of Deep Pink Spring Flowers:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Produces an abundant display of vivid magenta-pink flowers directly on its branches and trunk in early spring, creating a striking spectacle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique, Glossy, Wavy Foliage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Features small, thick, distinctly wavy-margined, heart-shaped leaves that emerge with reddish tints, mature to a glossy blue-green or golden-green, and turn yellow in fall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExceptional Heat and Drought Tolerance:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e A superb choice for dry, sunny landscapes.
