Blooming during the coldest months when little else is in flower, it brings welcome color and scent to dormant landscapes. The flowers appear on bare branches before the foliage emerges, creating a striking display in borders, woodland gardens, and mixed shrub plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hardy shrub offers multi-season interest. After the winter bloom, fresh green foliage emerges and develops attractive fall color, adding texture and seasonal change to the garden. Its upright, spreading habit works well as a specimen plant, in a mixed border, or as part of a naturalized planting where its fragrance can be enjoyed up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlant Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFragrant yellow ribbon-like flowers that bloom in winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlowers appear on bare branches before foliage emerges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttractive green foliage with fall color interest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpright, spreading habit suitable for borders and woodland gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardy in USDA zones 3-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hamamelis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deciduous flowering shrub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, well-drained soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate; keep soil evenly moist, especially during establishment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright and spreading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant your Fragrant Witch Hazel in a location with full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. Dig a hole slightly wider than the root ball, place the shrub at the same depth it was growing in its container, and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a layer of mulch around the base to conserve moisture and moderate soil temperature, keeping mulch away from the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly during the first growing season to help the shrub establish. Once established, witch hazel is relatively low-maintenance; continue watering during dry periods. Prune lightly after flowering if needed to shape the plant or remove damaged branches.
