Redbud explodes in color in the early spring around Mariposa. Splashes of intense color line the Merced River. Is redbud really red? -goes the question. The bark of the plant certainly is a deep rich red color, in painters terms a burnt sienna with a touch of alizarin, but the bloom is more like an intense fuschia, a rose madder straight from the tube, or with a bit of white!
