Tree Cercis siliquastrum 'Showgirl' Showgirl Love Tree
Description This newer form of Cercis siliquastrum produces clusters of large purplish-pink flowers in early spring followed by dark green heart shaped leaves in summer. It colours up a treat too, turning before from green to a golden yellow in autumn.
Foliage Deciduous
Form V-Shaped
Mature Size 5 x 2m
Uses 'Showgirl' has a more upright growth habit than 'Forest Pansy' which makes it a consideration for gardens with narrower growing space. Great along a walkway or as a specimen tree in a small space.
Position & Soil Like all Cercis, 'Showgirl' prefers deep well-drained soils and a position in full sun or partial shade. Drought tolerant once established but best results when adequate water is provided during dry periods. Avoid hot and very windy sites. Also suitable for colder climate gardens, including frosts and light snow.
