smoke tree

Question

Answer 1

Yes, this can take a year or two, and sometimes longer to flower. With some patience, this tree will bloom profusely with little care. This article will give you more information on these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/smoke-tree/growing-smoke-trees.htm
