This week on The Horti-Culturalists we take a look at a useful and popular group of plants, Cotinus, or Smokebush! Stephen has a few in his garden and nursery so in this video we'll look at the best Cotinus for plumes, plant size, autumn foliage, colour and the best of the purple leaved ones. This group of plants can take Mediterranean conditions such as those found in Southern Australia, but are also cold hardy so their popularity in many parts of the world is completely understandable. The plants we look at in this video are:
Cotinus coggygria 'Young Lady'
Cotinus coggygria 'Flame'
Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple'
Cotinus coggygria 'Grace'
Cotinus coggygria 'Golden Spirit'
We have looked at a 'Smokebush' that isn't a Cotinus; Bystropogon canariensis or the Canary Island smoke bush, and you can see that video here: • How to grow Bystropogo...
And we've included a purple leaved Cotinus in this video about summer colour foliage plants which you can see here: • Five Great Plants For ...

👍🌿What a wonderful selection of Cotinus. I've seen the Cotinus, from a distance, whilst driving, not knowing what it was and was impressed by it's billowy habit and form. Your videos are great insider, knowledge and insights. Thank you .👏💞

Hi from Tokyo Japan. We also have lots of smoke trees in the city and this is the very season to see lovely fluffy flowers. Since you said in your video that you have never seen one in Asia, I say hello from here as smoke bush lovers, thanks for your lovely video.

I spent most of my life in Alberta where cotinus is borderline hardy at best but since moved to a warmer region of Canada (for largely horticultural reasons) where my property has a large old Royal Purple variety which i have been coppicing over a few years. I have seen the chartreuse one recently, also very nice! We are very happy to be able to grow this plant now in our new lives! Yes i am aflame for cotinus among many other things of course!

I recently went to a nature park and happened upon a smoke tree, its the fluffiest plant and it was fuscia colored. I recently bought one at an obscure nursery. I can't wait to plant it in the ground.

I lost my Golden Spirit to verticillium wilt a few months ago, just when it has taken off in glorious goldiness. The Royal Purple has been a solid foundation shrub to break up the greenness of high summer. Highly recommend all. Quite easy once protected from rabbits during winter/dormant period.

We have two Grace in our yard, one I've coppiced before but it's blousy now (a bit on the Dr Seuss side really). I think I coppiced it too early in its life because I didn't get the effect I wanted but it's 4 years old now so I might give it another go. I'm also glancing out the window as this video plays looking at potential areas for a Golden Spirit or two! Beautiful plants. Thanks for the tour.

Just because something is large in comparison to members of same family doesn't make it a "beast"... Grace is like a blend of all the smoke trees with leaves of dark and gold green, purples and pinks. I wouldn't call her a beast, I would call her a cotinus masterpiece.

I love your video and explanations for all of the different types of Cotinus. I live in Southern California Zone 9, which is a hot inland valley. How will the Cotinus Royal Purple handle a north exposure with a few hours of afternoon sun? I would say it's part sun, not full sun.

Stephen many thanks for the Smokebush video. I have inherited what I think is Grace. She is about 4m tall & the same wide. I don't think it has ever been regularly pruned. When I prune, it sends out long stalks. These stalks have no leaves on the stem - which grow as long as 1m, however leaf at the stem tip from which they flower. How can I get this plant to bush up please? Many thanks Techa
@thehorti-culturalists
@thehorti-culturalists 9 месяцев назад
You could try nipping the tops from the new shoots when they get to about 1metre to encourage more side shoots however Grace usually grows this way so perhaps you can plant a small shrub in front if the bare legs offend you. Regards Stephen

Thanks for another great video! I have a question regarding bare root trees, I planted 40 last Autumn and some never leafed out on the top half of the whip or the leaders were damaged by horses or kangaroos😢, great branching and leafing lower down but the central leader seems to have died. Would trimming this portion out be detrimental to the overall shape or health of the plant ( crab apple ioensis plena, London plane tree, copper beech, white ash tree and liquid amber) I am in Western Australia in the Chittering Valley, laterite, gravelly soil but heavily amended planting with Seamungus and compost, irrigated weekly for deep watering, twice a week when over 35 degrees, well mulched, thank you ☺️ you guys are awesome!
@thehorti-culturalists
@thehorti-culturalists Год назад
Prune back to live strong growth and when they get bigger remove some of the extra leaders to encourage a more tree like habit. They will take a little longer to make useful trees but most should. Regards Stephen.

I want to coppice a smoke tree because of the location in a red screen on the street. The small, first year shrub is about 20” tall. When do I cut it back for the first time? At what height? Can’t find specific directions. Thank you!
@thehorti-culturalists
@thehorti-culturalists Год назад
It really is up to you to a certain extent but usually I recommend about 60cms or so as a good height. Then you cut back the following years stems back to almost the same height the next winter., thus repeating the process. Regards Stephen

Are Cotinus self pollinating? My bush has never bloomed. I am in northern Mn., could our season be too short? I believe I have a Royal Purple; it's about 5 yrs old.
@thehorti-culturalists
@thehorti-culturalists 11 месяцев назад
Yes they are self pollinating but that wouldn't stop it flowering as it needs to flower to be pollinated. Royal purple is one of the forms that is shy of flowering so it can take some time to bloom. Avoid pruning as much as possible as this will also inhibit blooming. Your climate shouldn't be an issue . Regards Stephen

I have a Golden (Cotinus coggygria) - planted the previous spring it was about 1ft x 1ft. It put on a lot of growth and this spring/summer I was expecting to see plumes, but nothing. Do these have to reach a certain size/maturity to flower or could I have another issue? I am located in the United States, Michigan with growing zone 6A.
