redbud
Pink spring bloomer
Redbud is a small North American tree that produces clusters of pink or purplish flowers in early spring, often before its heart-shaped leaves appear.
The flowers grow directly from branches and even the trunk, creating a striking display.
The redbuds along the highway were blooming.
Also called Judas tree.
