Smoke bush or for its official title, Cotinus Coggygria (fancy!), is a shrub that’s also commonly known as smokebush, smoke tree, and purple smoke tree, or even cloud tree or wig tree. Those mysterious, burgundy-hued, cloud-like floral designs you’ve been seeing everywhere lately are a very trendy and edgy idea for a wedding. This unusual, merlot-toned foliage lends a sultry feathery effect thanks to its beautiful smokey wine plumes that look like a puff of brown or pink smoke over its foliage. Smoke bush is the perfect addition to wedding floral arrangements such as hanging installations, arches and centerpieces and is sure to bring a wow effect to the space.
Smoke bush is available in late summer and early autumn. However, make sure to liaise with your chosen wedding florist to ensure its availability for your wedding. Smoke bush is drought tolerant, so once cut, it can survive out of water for many hours making it ideal for large scale installations or if you need to prepare your flowers in advance. This is a great advantage that allows your florists to make the decor in advance and trasport it to the venue, it also reduces the costs.
