'Appalachian Red’ is a red-flowered cultivar that grows to 15-25’ tall. Clusters of tiny, fuchsia-pink to red, pea-like flowers bloom for 2-3 weeks in early spring (April) before the foliage emerges. Following the flowers are bean-like seed pods that mature in summer and can persist until winter. Heart-shaped foliage with pointed tips matures to a dark blue-green in summer and turns yellow in fall.
