Smokebush or smoketree (Cotinus) is puffing away right now, providing the almost ethereal inflorescences that give it its name and alternates such as cloud bush, mist tree, wig tree, and Jupiter’s beard.
Golden Spirit Smoke Tree
Large shrub with bright yellow summer foliage that is infused with green. Leaves turn spectacular shades of amber, burgundy, scarlet and green in fall. A bright accent for any landscape. (May or may not produce plumes typical of other Smoke Trees.)
