As with other Cotinus, early summer brings cloud-like green flower clusters that turn into pink “smoke-like” plumes. A shrub that is sure to add unique color and texture to your landscape!

Growing Preferences
The Winecraft Gold Smokebush is very easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to mostly sun for best foliage color and flowering. Good drought tolerance when established. Constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic. Exceptionally low maintenance with little to no pruning necessary.

Plant arrived faster than most online nurseries, was very well packed, and what I feel like is a large specimen for the price. Have ordered 5 gallon plants (same species) elsewhere and the plant itself and root ball were not as large and healthy as the specimen I received from Wilson Bros. Would absolutely order again.—————————————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
