Common Name: Mexican Buckeye Botanical name: Ungnadia speciosa Type: Small tree or large shrub Light Requirement: Sun, partial sun Water Requirement: Low Height: 15 to 30 feet Width/Spacing: 8 to 12 feet Flower Color: Pink Blooming Period: Spring Plant Form or Habit: Large shrub, small tree Foliage Color and Texture: Deciduous, golden yellow in fall Butterfly or bird attracter: Butterflies, insects Deer Resistant: High Plant Use: Shrub or small tree Mexican buckeye occurs mostly west of the Brazos River on the well drained limestone soils on stream banks of damp canyons in South, Central and West Texas, east to Dallas County. Its pink flowers bloom simultaneously as it leafs out with light bronze colored leaflets which turn pale green during the growing season. Its fall color is bright golden yellow. In its spring flowering aspect it is thought to somewhat resemble eastern redbuds. This plant may be used as a large, coarse multi-trunk shrub or trained into a small tree. Basal pruning in late spring will maintain the tree form. As it is a tall spreading plant it makes an attractive tall background shrub or deciduous screen, but because of its spreading nature it is not well suited near the street. Mexican buckeye's round black somewhat shiny seeds are contained within a coarse, dark brown 3 valued capsule which somewhat resembles buckeye (Aesculus spp.) seeds. However, the two species are not related. Fruit Characteristics: 3-celled, 3-valved capsule with up to 3 shiny round black seeds Soil Requirements: neutral alkaline Source of data: http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/ornamentals/natives/shrubs/ungnadiasp1466.jpg http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=unsp Extension programs service people of all ages regardless of socioeconomic level, race, color, sex, religion, disability, or national origin.

Name: Mexican Redbud Leguminosae (Fabaceae) Mexican redbud is smaller in stature, has smaller, glossier, and more wavy-edged leaves, and is more drought tolerant than Texas redbud. It grows as a multitrunked tree on hard limestone soils in west Texas. It cannot tolerate poorly drained soils, and must be planted in a well-drained site. Plant Habit or Use: large shrub small tree Exposure: sun Flower Color: rose-purple Blooming Period: spring Fruit Characteristics: small flattened pods and seeds Height: 10 ft. to 15 ft. Width: 10 ft. to 15 ft. Plant Character: deciduous Heat Tolerance: very high Water Requirements: medium low Soil Requirements: adaptable Some confusion as to its botanical name and relationship to other redbuds. Sometimes Mexican Redbud (C. c. var. mexicana) is distinguished from the Texas Redbud (C. c. var. texensis ). However, other authorities consider that the two varieties represent environmentally induced morphologies (i.e. more leathery leaves in more xeric conditions) and lump both under C. c. var. texensis.
