Native Plant Spotlight | Eastern Redbud

Native to Riverwoods, the Eastern Redbud is known for its early pink flowers in spring with yellow fall color.  With moderate to fast growth rate, this landscaping accent can reach 15'-20' in height and 10'-15' in wideth.

To help restore the ecological health of our woodlands, residents are encouraged to plant native trees, shrubs, flowers and other plant species.  If you're considering adding the Eastern Redbud to your property's landscape, you might qualify for a cost-share programs, with the Village covering up to 50% of the cost of native plants as well as planting costs.

Your property may qualify for one or more of the Village's Cost-Share programs, which can not only help restore the ecological health of Riverwoods, but can also improve your property's ornamental landscape and real estate value. To see which cost-share programs your property qualifies for, request an Ecological Consultation with the Village Ecologist.
