Add Smoke Tree for Drama and Drought Tolerance
Our smoke tree is currently blooming in an obscure corner of the nursery. Its worth a look! Smoke trees are typically dark red small trees or large shrubs to about 12 feet, Golden Spirite is a lime green variety, They are perfect for a patio or a tree near the front entry.
In Spring they come into bloom with a cloud of purple smoke. The "flowers" are so light and airy they appear to be just a cloud.
Plant a smoke tree in full sun and don't worry too much about watering after it is established. They have been seen growing in places without additional water similar to some native plants. They will appreciate water once or twice a month when established. Give them water a couple times a week for 2 years to establish.
