Cercis canadensis 'Ruby Falls'
Choose Ruby Falls Redbud if you want a small weeping focal tree with purple foliage and pink spring bloom; the tradeoff is slow growth and little screening value.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The weeping shape, spring flowers, and dark foliage give it strong presence in a small area. |
| Growth Rate | C+ | It develops slowly, so buy it for form and color rather than quick size. |
| Maintenance | B | It needs some early shaping and steady watering while establishing, but routine care is manageable. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this tree alone, though young plants can be browsed or rubbed where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its compact weeping habit works well where a full-sized ornamental tree would crowd the space. |
| Screening Value | D | This is a specimen tree, not a plant for blocking views or creating privacy. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Ruby Falls Redbud as a featured plant near a walk, patio, or entry, not as a background tree.
| Mature Height | 7 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 5.5 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 5a-9b |
| Spacing | 7 ft |
| Sun | Full Sun to Part Shade |
| Moisture | Average to moist |
| Growth Habit | Weeping, cascading |
The foliage holds dark purple tones best with good sun, then can soften as the season moves on.
Yes, but heavier shade usually means less color and a looser look.
Light shaping is helpful when young; avoid hard pruning unless correcting structure.

Chris and associates in the field were informative and professional in directing me through the extensive nursery inventory. I will tell friends about my experience and be back in the future.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
