Witch hazels are unique shrubs that offer profuse flowering at times when everything else in the garden looks dull and far from cheerful. Pallida is a tried and proved variety that has been popular for decades and loved for its rich yellow, fringe-like, sweetly scented flowers which lack the typical witch hazel spiciness. They like cold weather and start flowering in late winter and continue until the first very hot days of spring.

Deciduous leaves are mid green, similar to hazel, but larger and turn yellow in autumn. Witch hazel is a beautiful shrub or a small tree of an open vase shape, and thanks to its size of about 3m it is ideal for even a small garden.

Witch hazel hybrids are of garden-origin. They are a cross between Asian species h.japonica and h.mollis. Grow them in acid to neutral, moist but well drained soil. They don’t tolerate lime or hard pruning when older. Sunny location or light semi-shade is best. Fully hardy to about -29°C (USDA zone 5) but exposed sites are not recommended.
