Cotinus Velvet Fog Pw

 This variety has the most flowers of any Smokebush yet and they bloom for weeks! The blue-green foliage stands out in the garden and compliments the early summer, large soft panicles of bloom that appear as misty “smoke." Can be trained as a large shrub or small tree. Makes a great specimen plant, but can also be used as a low hedge or mass planting.   

Deer resistant. 

Full sun. Average-fertile, moist, well-draining soil. Intolerant of wet soil- avoid low-lying areas.   Zones 4-8.   

Blooms on new wood- pruning is not usually required but if you need to do so, it should be done in the spring.
