Pink Smoketree
Pink Smoketree
Showy Native Plant

  (6 customer reviews)

Creates an unforgettable display in midsummer when its feathery lime-green flowers become airy pink plumes. In fall, the Pink Smoketree has blue-green leaves turn gold, scarlet and purple. Grows 10-15 ft. prune to tree or shrub form. Resists pests and diseases. Full sun.

Flowering shrubs are bargains in beauty. They produce a profusion of flowers and foliage- a feast for or senses- and seem equally attractive to birds, butterflies and hummingbirds. Even when they’re not in bloom, many add interest to the landscape. Shrubs grow fast, last nearly forever and require a minimum care.

Comments: A beautiful and highly decorative shrub where-ever it is used in the landscape. The rich purple foliage does not fade in the sun and brings a wonderful color to the garden. In June - August seedheads develop into huge fluffy clouds of smokey pink (hence the name) and are prized for their delicate flower-like display. If it gets too tall or open it can be cut back to ground-level when necessary to induce compact new growth. A hardy and trouble-free shrub with multiple uses in the garden.

a lot for a little
Reviewed By: Nancy C (Orondo, WA)
We live at the western base of the Columbia Plateau in a hot, summer-baked rock pile! I look for plants that are drought tolerant but still have something to offer. What isn't mentioned about the smoke tree in the description is its phenomenal fall leaves--orange, red, burgundy---that stay on long, long after the sumac and burning bushes. We have a harsh, sandy environment here, but these sweet little trees don't take much compared to what they give. After a couple of springs, it's now over 5 feet (pretty good for growing in pure subsoil!). Spring's barely here and I can hardly wait for fall just to see that beautiful color.

Fast Growing Tree
Reviewed By: Niki G (Bussey, IA)
Like another reviewer said I was somewhat skeptical when I first recieved this last spring. It was just a single branch around 12" long. I planted it when it was still cool, end of March here, and was afraid it might be a shock to it's system. This tree did really well and branched up and out at least 6 12" long stems. It also had very beautiful foilage. Dark leaves. It did lose it's leaves this winter, but is starting to bud out again this spring. It never produced plumes last year, but a fruit tree doesn't produce fruit the first year and most flowering perennials don't bloom fully the first year either. So hopefully in the next year or two it will start producing the pink plumes. I only rated this a four due to the small size of the tree when you first recieve it. But I am very satisfied with it.

Pink Smokey's R Great
Reviewed By: William Smith (Lebanon, Virginia)
When I first got these, I was skeptical...just looked like sticks but I planted them. I was amazed at how the sticks started sprouting growth and leaves...color change of leaves was great...later the next Spring, I had beautiful pink flumes all through August. Great!
