Description

Always wanted a purple smoke bush or tree but didn’t have room for such a large shrub? Meet Velveteeny, a dwarf Cotinus coggygria selection that reaches only 3 to 4 feet tall and equally as wide when all grown up. This makes it perfect for smaller garden spaces and containers where its larger growing cousins won’t fit. Providing a bounty of three-season color in the landscape, the rounded leaves are a deep burgundy-purple turning to a rich red with the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall. As with it’s larger growing cousins, in late spring to early or mid summer abundant, plumes of wispy soft-pink flowers appear as puffs of smoke rising just above the foliage. Easy to grow, deer, disease, drought and insect resistant, Velveteeny is sure to add a low-maintenance presence of unique color and texture to the sunny landscape.

Landscape & Garden Uses

A dwarf that grows only 3 to 4 feet tall and equally as wide, the Velveteeny Smoke Bush is ideal for use as a specimen in smaller garden spaces, containers and home foundation plantings or in groupings or as a natural hedge where space allows. The dark colored foliage contrasts nicely with plants that have light colored foliage or pink, white, lavender or yellow flowers. A fine addition to purple theme gardens and the Xeriscape (low water needs).

Suggested Spacing: 7 feet for space between plants

Growing Preferences

The Velveteen Smoke Bush 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. It has good drought tolerance when established. Constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic. Exceptionally low maintenance with little to no pruning necessary.

Plant Long & Prosper!
