Cotinus coggygria Purpureus

Purple Smoke Tree Features

Cotinus Purpureus grows to approximately 3 metres tall and wide, forming a rounded, open shrub. Its rich purple leaves provide dramatic visual interest during the growing season, which intensifies in autumn with brilliant reds and oranges. The soft, plume-like flowers bloom in late spring to summer, creating the distinctive smoky effect that defines smoke trees.

Smoke Bush Growing Conditions and Care

This purple smoke bush thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained soils. It is drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal maintenance. Pruning after flowering encourages new growth and maintains a compact, attractive shape. Cotinus Purpureus is perfect for specimen planting, borders, or mixed shrub gardens in New Zealand.
