Redbud 'Silver Cloud': Variegated Foliage Masterpiece

Redbud 'Silver Cloud'

A Plantsman's Selection

Discovered by Kentucky plantsman Theodore Klein, 'Silver Cloud' redbud (Cercis canadensis) stands out for its extraordinary creamy-white and pink variegated foliage. Each leaf is a work of art, splashed with irregular margins and sectors of pale cream and soft pink against a green center.

Spring Flower Power

Before the foliage unfurls, rosy-pink blossoms cover bare branches—a classic redbud spectacle that bridges winter and spring. The combination of early flowers and season-long variegated leaves makes this a true four-season performer.

Growth & Culture

This deciduous tree reaches 10–15 feet tall with a graceful 7–12 foot spread. It thrives in partial sun with moderate moisture, making it an excellent choice for woodland edges or dappled-light gardens.
