Cercis siliquastrum – Judas Tree

Cercis siliquastrum – Judas Tree

A mass of pink pea-like flowers born on the bare branches in spring.

There are several of these trees around Motueka; with two new, and very well guarded, specimens beside the iSite on Decks Reserve. The pictures below were taken of a particularly fine specimen on Thorp Street.
