Growing Requirements for Witch Hazel Plants
Witch Hazel is hardy in USDA Zones 4-9 and is one of the earliest of all blooming shrubs,
providing you with up to eight weeks of unique, fragrant flowers.
Some varieties begin blooming as early as December
while others may bloom as late as March.
The soft grayish-green leaves emerge after the flowers.
The foliage turns to a bright yellowish-orange color in the fall.
Witch Hazel grows best in moist, rich, acidic soil.
To reach its maximum blooming potential, Witch Hazel should be grown in full sun,
but it will grow and bloom in partial shade as well.
Once established, Witch Hazel plants will tolerate occasional periods of drought.
Provide protection from cold winter winds.
