        In hindsight, the Cercis would have bloomed before it leafed.

            Thanks @Silver surfer Funnily enough I can’t remember seeing any flowers on it at all! But i do recall how pretty the leaves look when they change colour. I will also be alert for the candyfloss smell :)

            Your tree is still a baby...only older trees will have the flowers.
            Be patient.
            They flower very early in the year...March.
            If I remember correctly before the leaves open.

            People smell the toffee apple/candyfloss smell from a long way away and cannot work out where the smell comes from.

            Look after your tree!
