| Description | 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.
10" pot size. | Heuchera coral bells
Peppermint Spice has beautiful peppermint green foliage highlighted with a silver overlay and purple veins. And if that’s not enough, in Spring this delightful plant will have elegant pink bell shaped flowers held above the foliage. They are extremely vigorous and very easy to grow. They are well suited to a wide range of climates and positions, and will thrive in hot humid conditions as well as cooler climates. These versatile plants will grow almost anywhere adding that extra dimension that only foliage plants can do. In late Spring to Summer tiny flowers appear.. Ideal for garden beds, rockeries, mass planting and containers.
