Common Name: Showgirl Judas Tree
Description:
Cercis siliquastrum 'Showgirl' is a breathtaking deciduous tree renowned for its abundant spring blossoms and elegant form. In early spring, before the foliage emerges, this tree is covered in masses of vibrant pink, pea-like flowers that grow directly on the branches and trunk, creating a striking display. The rounded, heart-shaped leaves follow, emerging as a fresh green before turning golden-yellow in autumn. 'Showgirl' thrives in Melbourne’s climate, preferring full sun and well-drained soil. It is highly tolerant of drought and poor soils once established, making it a hardy and low-maintenance feature tree for gardens, courtyards, and streetscapes. This small to medium-sized tree is perfect for adding seasonal colour and attracting pollinators.
