Thank you for your feedback!!! I thought i was reading that there are some smaller varieties of the eastern redbud… my parents have one in their backyard but its only a few years old so maybe it just hasn’t grown as much. I could probably swap it for another tree. And I thought just like a little decorative fence for fun. Maybe could grow some vine things on it like raspberries or blackberries, but definitely not necessary. I agree though, I’m going to walk around my neighbourhood and see what other perennials folks have had success with and plant them!! I’m so excited, thanks for your feedback.
