Smoke tree panicles in the sky |
|
Smoke trees are a
beautiful ornamental addition to a garden with wispy smoky
appearance due to the flower panicles in early summer and a
brilliant range of fall colors that outlast most other trees
going into October and November.

Smoke trees grow well in relatively dry, poor condition
soil which adds to fall colors and keeps plant from growing very large. |
|
|
The flowers bloom in clusters in
large open panicles that have the appearance of smoke rising from the bush from
a distance giving the plant it's name. |
