SEVEN SON FLOWER Heptacodium miconioides
2008 Plant Select! As I get to know this plant, I become
more impressed. The overall look is that of a Crape Myrtle
with exfoliating bark. It blooms in late August/early
September when most trees and shrubs don’t. The creamy
white flowers are incredibly fragrant with a spicy citrus
scent. The flowers change to large clusters of pink/red five
star floret-like bracts. Very impressive without question!

SMOKE TREE, GOLDEN Cotinus coggygria ‘Ancot’
This shrub is just like good old purple smoke tree but is
bright gold instead. You know how some plants that are
yellow look chlorotic even though they’re not? This one
doesn’t, it is a vibrant yellow. In fall, the leaves change to a
colorful rainbow of coral, orange and red. The plumes are a
smokey pink from late spring to early summer.
