This plant is an elegant, weeping deciduous tree with a compact habit that adds striking interest to gardens. Hardy in Zones 5-9, it thrives in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 30°F. In early spring, creamy white, pea-like flowers delicately cascade along its branches, creating a stunning visual display before the foliage emerges. Its heart-shaped leaves mature to a lush green through summer, with a modest yellow fall color for seasonal interest. While it does not produce notable fruit, it prefers well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soils and benefits from consistent soil moisture. With an irregular, pendulous form, this selection reaches a mature height of about 6-8 feet, making it ideal for small landscapes or as a specimen tree. It is moderately deer-resistant, making it a reliable choice for areas with browsing wildlife.
