A novel variety of the redbud tree Cercis canadensis was discovered in Northern Oklahoma. It exhibits vibrant whitish-yellow spring colors, often mottled (variegate) with unstable green and white chimera which may be reversed. The whitish-yellow leaves cover eighty (80%) percent of the spring tree growth, giving the tree the appearance of having a golden crown. The variety known as 'Gold Crown' also branches readily, resulting in relatively full, spreading foliage even in young trees.
