COTINUS COGGYGRIA "ROYAL PURPLE" (Smokebush)

Great colour

That's beautiful Ponty !

For those who saw this before, when I asked what it was, my apologies. With your help, my query was resolved so I decided to re-caption it. While I was at it, I replaced the picture, little realising that this would start a new stream. We live and learn!

When I first joined I got my first digital camera and some of my first pic's were on the wrong way up ! Thanks to people on here, I found out how to put them the right way up and, as you, started another thread ! As you say, we live and learn, but it's great fun learning on here isn't it ? :-))

Sure is, Sue.

Wonderful Autumn colour Ponty...........

It's a lovely colour Ponty ......... a nice shaped shrub to ! ...

Thanks Janey (very late, sorry) & Amy. I love it.

What a fantastic looking tree, stunning colours! I have a tiny Cotinus and was going to take photos of its lovely autumn colours but the leaves all went in the storm so it was a very short lived pleasure. Next year I'll be faster! :)

Thanks Limpet. The colours are beautiful aren't they. I hope your "baby" thrives. Mine is probably about 25 years old, or more, now. It was here when we moved in 1987. As you say, grab your camera earlier next year.:o)) - and give us a look at it!
