Royal Purple Smoketree

Royal Purple Smoketree brings bold color and striking texture to the landscape with its rich, wine-colored foliage and cloud-like summer blooms. In late spring to early summer, it produces airy, smoky-purple flower clusters that hover above the leaves, creating a misty, ethereal effect. The foliage starts deep burgundy and holds its color through the season, transitioning to brilliant red and orange tones in the fall. Growing 15 feet tall and 10 feet wide, this deciduous shrub or small tree has a naturally upright, open form that works beautifully as a specimen, hedge, or backdrop in mixed beds.
