American smoke tree is a small tree or large shrub and displays some of the showiest fall colors from yellow to red to purple. From a distance, the spent flowers give the tree a "smoky" appearance. This drought tolerant plant will do best in sunny, well-drained areas. Too much water or rich soil will be detrimental. It naturally grows on glades or bluffs.
