Cotinus


Cotinus (Cotinus coggygria (Smoke bush))

I love the deep colour of the leaves against the light wall. This photo doesn't do it justice.

Although mine is in the border and huge, I have never had any smoky plumes of flowers.

Good in a blue pot, too. A bit like my copper beech bonsai, also in a blue pot.

Yes, you need sunshine on those leaves to really show it off. Gorgeous when in flower too :)

I have just noticed my Cotinus is flowering, not smoky plumes, but clusters of small yellowy ones.

I think the plumes come afterwards Sue. :)

I will keep a look out for those plumes, Karen. Thank you.
