Re: What is this pretty shrub
Hi, John.
It's a little fuzzy (the picture, I mean), but by the COLOR it's an American Redbud, cercis canadensis. Sometimes they are multi-branched and shrubby; other times they're more of a tree.
With today's HEAT, ours are just about to pop.

Yep it is a Redbud! They grow wild all over here in OK. I just love them.
