Cottinus ‘Grace’

(C. coggygria x C. Obovatus)  Irridescent spring foliage of green overlaid with claret deepens to rich wine red as the season progresses, then to a handsome blue green by late summer – all of this on a 12’- 15’ deciduous shrubby tree that finishes in fall with glowing red orange! Huge pink ‘clouds’ of flowering ‘smoke’ in summer make this a stunner.  Full sun, most soils, drought tolt, deer rest and easy to grow. (We don’t want no stinkin barberry…)
