Smoke Tree Features and Growth Habit

As a smoke tree, Cotinus coggygria grows to 3 to 5 metres tall and wide with a rounded, spreading habit. Its foliage ranges from green to deep purple depending on the variety, turning brilliant shades of orange, red, and gold in autumn. The wispy flower clusters appear in late spring to summer, giving the distinctive smoky appearance that inspired its common names.

This smoke bush thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. It tolerates drought once established and is relatively low maintenance. Pruning after flowering encourages fresh growth and maintains a compact shape, making it suitable for borders, hedges, or as a striking specimen plant in gardens across New Zealand.
