Is my Rising Sun Redbud salvageable? #877420
Asked July 16, 2024, 8:10 AM EDT
I have a Rising Sun Redbud that I planted 2.5 years ago. I'd already had a couple branches die and break last year, and now this large part broke during a storm last night. Is the tree salvageable at all? I feel like it would look scrawny and I'm concerned it will not fill out any further. Full Sun. Northern Indiana zone 5b. Including before and after photos.

Hi Jill,
I would recommend contacting your Purdue Extension County agent or a local urban forester. This question was assigned to me in Maryland so it is a little out of my geographic region. Good luck!
