A superb dwarf tree. Abundant flowers in March-April before the leaves appear. Resembles a dwarf Judas-tree. Compact plant, capable of bearing lots of flowers directly on branches (cauliflore). Excellent for small areas, containers, rock gardens, borders and flowerbeds. Lovely heart-shaped leaves. Tolerates dry weather and chalky soils.
