ROYAL PURPLE SMOKETREE 3gal

The Royal Purple Smoketree is a showstopper that transforms any landscape into a dramatic masterpiece. If you are looking for deep, velvety foliage that holds its rich purple color through the heat of summer, this is your plant. Growing to a manageable 10-15 feet tall and wide, it serves as a stunning focal point or a bold hedge for privacy. For gardeners in zones 7 and 8, this deciduous beauty is a dream; it loves the full sun and is exceptionally deer-resistant, meaning you can enjoy its unique, puffy "smoke" plumes in mid-summer without worry.

The secret to a vibrant Smoketree lies in the soil. When planting, always blend Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil to provide the drainage and aeration these roots crave. To keep that royal purple hue intense and the growth steady, nourish your tree with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food. This organic approach ensures your tree remains hardy against the wind and heat.
