For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Acer palmatum dissectum 'Crimson Queen'
Crimson Queen is a slow growing Maple, ideal where a very compact tree is required. It produces brilliant bright red foliage in Spring turning crimson in Summer and scarlet in outer foliage is extra small and fine.
Crimson Queen is a low-branching, dwarf tree with delicate weeping habit. It likes a position of full sunlight to partial shade. | Cotinus coggygria, Smoketree
Purple Smoke Bush is a gem in the garden thanks to it's unique blend of colours that change throughout the seasons. A large deciduous shrub or small tree, its beautiful eye-catching Spring foliage is green overlaid with purple. Summer brings deep purple foliage that then turns deep orange and bronze in a burst of glory for an Autumn show.
Purple Smokebush gets its name from the clouds of smoke-like purple and pink "flowers" it produces in early Summer. These are very beautiful themselves, and are prized along with the foliage by florists. Grows best in full sun to partial shade and it is tolerant of drought and most soils, making it a great addition to many gardens. |
