Hello,
Can you please identify the tree I have sent photos of. In spring it starts with fuschia flowers followed by leaves that are dark red when small that turn a combination of burgundy and green as they mature.
Thank you for all you do,

This is Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy', a purple leafed cultivar of our native Redbud.

Thank you so much for this information. The common name for the tree is as pretty as the tree itself.
