Yup, the very same. I got it at the Northeast Agogon Auction, but it was
donated by Marty and Jan (Joe Pye Weed's). The dark leaf behind 'Ivory' is
Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple' which I prune back hard each spring to keep
as a shrub rather than a tree. I find it a pleasing contrast in color and
texture.
