Cotinus LEMON LADY

A French, yellow-leafed variety of the wig tree, characterized by good branching and distinctive leaf colors. An improved version of the 'Ancot' variety both in terms of production in nurseries and subsequent cultivation in gardens. The bush grows to 2-3 meters in height. The single, obovate leaves are large, shiny, lime yellow in spring, light green in summer and orange in autumn. The flowers are small, only 3-4 mm in diameter, collected in loose, paniculate inflorescences, which grow intensively in June and July, taking the form of fluffy, slightly pink, decorative wigs. The variety is undemanding, frost-resistant, and tolerates full sunlight. Recommended for home gardens and urban greenery.
