Hamamelis vernalis Amanda - Witch Hazel - LARGE

Hamamelis vernalis 'Amanda', commonly known as Witch Hazel, is a charming deciduous shrub celebrated for its early and fragrant winter blooms. From late winter to early spring, it produces clusters of spidery, bright yellow to orange flowers with a subtle red base, creating a warm and inviting display when little else is flowering. The ribbon-like petals have a delightful, sweet fragrance that carries on the crisp winter air. As autumn approaches, the green foliage turns to stunning shades of yellow, orange, and red, adding another layer of seasonal beauty.

This hardy shrub thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil and enjoys full sun to partial shade. Minimal maintenance is needed – just remove dead or damaged branches after flowering. Plant as a specimen shrub or within a mixed border, and pair with other winter-interest plants like Cornus alba or evergreen Mahonia for a colourful and textured winter garden.

Supplied well branched, covered in buds in season, in approx 7-10 litre containers.
