The Oklahoma Redbud is a standout native tree known for its intense purple-pink flowers that cover the branches in early spring. Unlike other redbud varieties, this one features thick, glossy, dark green leaves that hold their color well through summer and turn yellow in fall. It grows 15–20 feet tall and wide with a rounded, elegant form that fits beautifully into small yards, borders, or entryways. Exceptionally heat- and drought-tolerant, it thrives in Oklahoma’s tough conditions with minimal care. It offers four-season interest and pollinator appeal in a compact, easygoing package.
