<h2>Cotinus coggygria Lilla</h2><p>Cotinus coggygria Lilla is a compact, deciduous smoke bush prized for its rich purple foliage that develops vibrant orange-red tones in autumn. In early to midsummer it bears small yellow flowers that age into the characteristic airy smoke plumes, adding soft texture above the rounded canopy. Ideal for smaller gardens and mixed borders, it is best grown in full sun to maximise leaf colour, in moderately fertile, well-drained soil; it will tolerate chalk but avoids waterlogged sites.
