Award-winner Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple' (Smokebush) is a bushy large deciduous shrub noted for its attractive foliage of rounded leaves. Emerging rich maroon-red in spring, the leaves mature to deep wine purple in summer, before turning redder in fall. Appearing in late spring, large, feathery, pink flower plumes cover the plant with fluffy, hazy 'smoky' puffs throughout summer. When viewed en masse, these have a wispy 'smoke-like' appearance, hence the common name of Smoketree or Smokebush. A spectacular accent shrub with a very long season of interest.

Handsomely blossoming in early to mid-spring, award-winning Tulip 'Orange Emperor' is a glowing orange tulip, with large, wide petals, a pale buttercup yellow base, and black anthers. Ravishing! Enjoying a sturdy stem, it will withstand strong winds and float gracefully above its elegant sword-like foliage.
