New – Winecraft Smoke Bush

This is no “green” shrub.  It starts the season with rich purple foliage, becoming deeper in color until it is nearly black, and then in fall it turns a brilliant orange..  This semi-dwarf dark-leaf smokebush  is a Proven Winners, therefore you know it is special.  Early summer brings wispy redflowers that become the beautiful, hazy-violet “smoke” that gives this plant its name.  It has a rounded, semi-dwarf habit.
