                          Hi @Sheal thanks for your comment :) @Perki is spot on :thumbsup:

                          It's Cotinus coggygria 'Royal Purple' - common name 'The smoke Tree'. It's about twenty years old.

                              The first one is one I have had since 2007.
                              The second one is a giveaway to our friend John.
                              Second blooms for both this year.
