Winecraft Gold Smoke Bush

The Winecraft Gold Smoke Bush is one of the best golden shrubs around. It is a compact 4 to 6 feet tall and wide, fitting into shrub beds of all sizes, out on lawns, as screening, and even in planter boxes. The spring leaves are rich gold, with the leaf edges and veins outlined in orange. Then it turns pure gold, and then chartreuse-yellow for the summer. It bounces back in fall with bright red and orange tones. All summer it is topped by a unique cloud of golden ‘smoke’, making a true thing of beauty for your garden. Use it with dark-leaved shrubs for fabulous color combinations.
