Winecraft Gold® Smokebush (Cotinus coggygria)
Winecraft Gold has round, waxy leaves that emerge a sunny orange, soon take on a golden hue, then mature to a cheerful chartreuse for the season. In early summer, cloud-like green flower clusters cover the plant, and these turn into the pink "smoke" plumes that earn the plant its name. This deer-resistant shrub naturally grows with a dense, oval shape that's ideal for adding a spot of bright color to partially shaded or sunny areas.
- 4-6 feet tall and 4 feet wide at maturity
- Hardy in zones 5-8, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
- Plant in full to part sun (4+ hours daily)
- Space plants 4-6 feet apart for best results
- Produces green-pink flowers during summer
- Maintains orange-yellow-green foliage spring to fall
- Blooms on old wood
- Great for borders, landscapes, focal points
- Resists deer
- Foliage interest, deadheading not necessary, clay tolerant, small variety
- Shrubs shipped Nov-Apr will arrive dormant; shrubs shipped Apr-Oct will arrive green or in bloom
Care: It's best to avoid pruning smokebush regularly, though you may selectively remove branches to attain the shape you desire. It's quite versatile and easy to grow, but do note that this golden selection is a bit less cold tolerant than other smokebush.
