Uses | 'Showgirl' has a more upright growth habit than 'Forest Pansy' which makes it a consideration for gardens with narrower growing space. Great along a walkway or as a specimen tree in a small space. | ||
Position & Soil | Like all Cercis, 'Showgirl' prefers deep well-drained soils and a position in full sun or partial shade. Drought tolerant once established but best results when adequate water is provided during dry periods. Avoid hot and very windy sites. Also suitable for colder climate gardens, including frosts and light snow. | ||
