Smoke Tree Seeds . 

 

Smoketree seeds have a moderate dormancy combined with a very hard, water-impermeable seed coat and require pre-treatment for successful germination to occur. Without pre-treatment it is likely that 10% or less of the seeds will germinate. A combination of seed pre-treatments is necessary to make the seed coat permeable so that the seed embryo can take up water and begin the process of  breaking down the natural dormancy contained within the seed. Try to line up your pre-treatment finishing around Spring for optimal results.

 

Height: up to 5-10 metres (15-30 feet)

 

The common name Smoke Tree derives not from the tiny, insignificant, yellowish flowers which appear in branching panicles in spring, but from the billowy hairs that are attached to the spent flower clusters. These hairs turn a smoky pink to purplish pink in summer, covering the tree with billowing, hazy “puffs of smoke”.

The Smoke Tree is closely related to the Sumacs Although it's name is Smoke 'Tree' it is actually a shrub that can be trained/pruned to grow as a tree and is commonly grown as an ornamental.
