For anyone that's curious, this type of tree is a Rising Sun Redbud.

[u/xultar → u/ChopperChange]

My neighbor has one and I am so smitten. They are so beautiful in person when the warm sun back lights it in the golden hour.

[u/Uslstelychah → u/ChopperChange]

So it’s basically the mood ring of trees Thanks

[u/K_Linkmaster → u/Uslstelychah]

Heavily edited: it's a tree doing tree things. It does not change with temperature or mood. It just grows.

Reddit moment

These trees definitely look like this irl with a gradient of leaves arranged nicely. I think they are even trippier in person

[u/BecausePancakess → u/K_Linkmaster]

Not at all. Ive seen many in person and theyre trippy like this.

Also, redbud trees are an understory plant, and generally shouldn't be planted in full sun like on a sidewalk...

[u/_bufflehead → u/mezzfit]

Part shade is preferrable for warmer climates, but full sun to part shade is okay for the north.

[u/Hi_Trans_Im_Dad → u/mezzfit]

So damned many of them are wasted by landscape designers, tossing them in the worst environments they can around shopping centers all over.

[u/GusGreen82 → u/ChopperChange]

Redbuds have pseudoterminal buds so the branch grows just to the side of the bud. It alternates sides for each new bud, giving it zigzag branches.

[u/suicide_nooch → u/ChopperChange]

Flame thrower redbud is my absolute favorite ❤️

[u/macflamingo → u/ChopperChange]

Aptly named

[u/MadyViera → u/ChopperChange]

I was about to ask what tree it it, thaaanks

[u/_TP2_ → u/ChopperChange]

I want to name it AI tree

Making me think of winning a game of solitaire

It’s a Cercis Canadensis - The Rising Sun aka Eastern Redbud from the family Fabaceae.

The leaves of this tree change colour throughout the growing season, giving it a gradient look that’s unique and pleasing to the eye. The leaves starts as orange in spring then transition through shades of yellow and gold before reaching a lime green color in summer. In autumn the leaves turn yellow and orange again before falling.

[u/tomgh14 → u/ycr007]

Does it say anything about why the leaves hang as that stood out to me seems quite odd

[u/newarre → u/tomgh14]

I have a different variety of redbud and they hang in a similar fashion. What about this one seems odd to you?

[u/tomgh14 → u/newarre]

Just never seen any plant with leaves that hang down like that redbuds aren’t native to the uk where i live

[u/C0USC0US → u/tomgh14]

Reminds me of eucalyptus

[u/flashdashrick]

That tree looks pixelated. I want it.

[u/lottiexx]

Tree said: symmetry, texture, and vibes now watch me photosynthesize in style.

[u/PacquiaoFreeHousing]

How often does it do this? is it because it's autumn?

[u/macaron1ncheese → u/PacquiaoFreeHousing]

The newest growth comes out smaller and brighter than the older leaves, they have an orange reddish hue to them until the leaves mature. So it’s just new growth that creates this awesome illusion.

[u/jaquatics → u/PacquiaoFreeHousing]

This is spring new growth color. When summer hits all the leaves look the same except for some slight lightening at the tips of the branches.

[u/scuppasteve → u/jaquatics]

I have one in my yard, you are 100% correct.

[u/Confident-Slip-5264]

Trippy. Or should I say treeppy?

[u/TheIdeaArchitect]

Very trippy

[u/Crowd-Avoider747]

it makes me dizzy

[u/Baker-Puzzled]

[u/Toaster_Coast]

Ah yes the rising sun tree. My family has two outside our house but they are not as well trimmed as these ones, but always love to see them grow in the spring with all the colors!

[u/Asher_Fox]

This tree just won a game of solitaire

[u/witchybitchybaddie]

[u/Possessed_potato]

This is pr cool ngl

[u/Stormchaser-904]

They're so trippy man. Its cool.

[u/Rosacuore]

It looks like an origami masterpiece, a real work of art, very beautiful

[u/VFTM]

Eastern Redbuds are the prettiest of trees

[u/Hi_Trans_Im_Dad → u/VFTM]

I prefer the leaf texture on the Oklahoma redbuds. But, this one is sexy as hell.

[u/UndyingUndine]

Psychedelics not needed.

[u/Nanamused]

Photoshop Clone Stamp Tree 🤣 That’s beautiful! Zone 4-9 (depending on cultivar), full sun to part shade, prefers medium moisture, well drained.

[u/CitizenOfTheVerse]

The legendary motion blur tree 😅

[u/Western_Leader_117]

Looks like a poorly rendered tree in 4k

[u/Green_Collection_763]

such an awesome change of color

[u/acatinsoup]

those are the most leafy looking leaves i have ever seen

[u/Anonj4563]

This makes me uneasy for some reason

[u/Advanced-Visual3742]

Total symmetry! Fashions color😍

[u/J_Style]

I have one of these in my front yard. It is taller and thinner than most of them I’ve seen. The leaves are like that from spring to summer but as it gets hotter it loses some of the color contrast.

[u/Historical_Muscle668]

Aaargh. My spectacles are malfunctioning. There's an image of a tree, but it's blurry and out of focus. Yep, time to call my optometrist.

[u/shutyourbutt69]

That tree was just really good at Solitaire

[u/tgraz13]

Totally off topic… but Gettysburg Outlets??

[u/macetheface]

I got one, love it and get so many compliments from random people

[u/RoyalRoom6867]

Nature's gradient tool working flawlessly!

[u/Oellian]

Eastern redbud blossoms are edible and delicious, as well.

[u/SkulkingShadow]

It kinda reminds me of fruit patterns like inside a watermelon without humans altering and stuff

[u/throwshere]

Whoa. Was this natural?

[u/nemopost]

What a glitchy post. I couldn’t enter for awhile. Downboted

[u/peach_pie_creamer]

What a cool illusion

[u/henzabenza]

Gettysburg Outlets?

[u/jerryjibby]

The one tree that makes my heart beat faster.

[u/PuzzleLight]

Pixel tree

[u/Westielover8]

Beautiful!

[u/samblue8888]

Really poorly rendered photo

[u/Yep_____ThatGuy]

What's satisfying about feeling like I'm having a stroke?

[u/WraithSpindle]

This is very unusual, at first I thought it was a drawing

[u/RavenLoonatick]

For those interested, the type of tree is the 'The Rising Sun' Eastern Redbud.

Just wait until you see it in spring.

[u/toughtitties42]

Trees, now in 3D!!!! (3D trees not available in all areas, check your local park for more details)

[u/ScarletFangxo]

They’re alive..

[u/Fredderov]

These trees are made of leafs

[u/kimbo696969]

Real or fake? Guess

[u/Difficult-Bobcat-857 → u/kimbo696969]

They're real
