DESCRIPTION
Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple', commonly known as Royal Purple smoke bush, is a deciduous shrub known for its rich purple foliage and dramatic blooms. In late spring to early summer, it produces large clusters of small, pinkish flowers with long, feathery filaments that create a smoky effect, giving the shrub its name. These airy plumes persist throughout the summer, adding a soft texture to the garden.
Native to southern Europe and parts of Asia, 'Royal Purple' is prized for its deep purple leaves that turn vibrant shades of red and orange in the fall. This cultivar offers year-round interest, from its colorful foliage in spring and summer to its dramatic autumn display. Its unique combination of bold color and texture makes it an excellent choice for adding visual impact to borders, focal points, or as a specimen plant.
