Long ago, we planted this witch hazel between the pond and the service road. It is now a tall shrub, healthy and surviving well. Every autumn it produces an abundance of small, delicate yellow blossoms. Probably one of the most interesting features of this tree is that it flowers in autumn, when most everything else flowers in the warmer months. It also has lovely rich yellow leaves in autumn. This native shrub is quite rare in the wilds around the region.
