Ancot Golden Spirit Cotinus Coggygria Golden Smoke Bush Tree - Live Plant

Cotinus coggygria ‘Ancot’, commonly known as Golden Spirit Smoke Bush, is a stunning ornamental shrub celebrated for its vibrant golden foliage and airy, cloud-like blooms.

Throughout the summer, soft plumes of smoky pink flower clusters appear above the foliage, creating the signature “smoke” effect that gives the plant its common name.

With its bold color, graceful branching, and easy-care nature, Golden Spirit Smoke Bush is an outstanding choice for borders, focal plantings, and vibrant garden designs.
