Cotinus obovatus
American smoketree

Similar to those of the Common Smoketree, the stems are more strongly orangish brown with a bluish bloom surrounding the buds and leaf scars. Like those of the Common Smoketree, these stems also have a large pith that is unpleasantly aromatic but somewhat more tan in color.
