Cercis orbiculata, the Arizona redbud, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae.[3] It is native to the U.S. states of Nevada, Utah, and Arizona, and is particularly common in Grand Canyon National Park.[2][3] A large shrub or small tree, it is typically found on slopes, canyons, and streambanks at elevations from 500 to 6,000 m (1,600 to 19,700 ft).[3][1] Native Americans used its bark and wood for basketry and bow-making.[3] Its showy flowers can be white, pink, purple, or red.[3]
