Witch Hazel is a deciduous shrub with a spreading habit and moderate growth rate. 'Diane' has copper red blooms in late winter and early spring that emerge before the leaves.
Hamamelis x intermedia is an artificial hybrid between H. japonica and H. mollis. It's an upright or wide-spreading bush, not densely branched but does have multiple stems. Plant in full sun to partial shade, in moist, fertile, well-drained acidic soil. Fall leaves are yellow, orange and red. Plant in small groups, use as a shrub border, as a hedge or plant solo as a specimen. Does tolerate pruning, but remember that flowers will appear on old growth. Deer resistant.
