Cotinus obovatus, commonly known as American Smoketree, is a deciduous tree native to the southeastern United States. It is known for its striking fall foliage and unique, smoke-like flower clusters. The tree prefers temperate climates and can grow up to 30 feet tall. It undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.
American Smoketree thrives in direct bright light and moderate temperatures. It prefers soil that dries out almost completely between waterings. The tree does well in moderate humidity and should be protected from extreme cold. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and health.
