Cotinus coggygria 'Young Lady'
Cotinus coggygria ‘Young Lady’ is an elegant and highly floriferous ornamental shrub, prized for its compact habit and abundant summer flowering in wispy clouds. Unlike many other smoke bushes, this selection stands out for its particularly generous and consistent "smoke" production, even on young plants. Its deciduous bluish-green foliage adds a soft and refined texture to the garden, then develops into beautiful orange-yellow hues in autumn. With moderate growth and good branching, it easily integrates into beds, low informal hedges, or as a specimen plant in medium-sized gardens. Well-suited to Quebec conditions in a sunny location and well-drained soil, ‘Young Lady’ combines spectacular flowering, a controlled habit, and simple maintenance for a lasting decorative effect.
