Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple', commonly known as the smoke bush or smoke tree, is a striking deciduous shrub prized for its dramatic foliage and unique, plume-like flower clusters. This cultivar is especially valued for its deep burgundy to near-black leaves that intensify in color through the growing season and turn vibrant shades of red and orange in autumn. In late spring to early summer, it produces airy, smoky-pink inflorescences that give the plant its common name, resembling puffs of smoke. 'Royal Purple' typically grows 10 to 15 feet tall and wide, making it an excellent choice for a bold focal point in garden landscapes. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, showing good drought tolerance once established. Pruning can be used to maintain shape or encourage lush new growth, which enhances the intensity of its foliage colour.
