Re: Cotinus dumosa


Dear Don,

There is a hybrid betweeen obvatus and coggygria called 'Grace'
It is described as having flower panicles 14" by 11", leaves
which start light red and mature to blue grey and very bright
fall color.  It matures at about 20' (all paraphrased from
Dirr)  'Grace' received an AHS Award of Merit.
