Amethyst Witch Hazel

One of the earliest shrubs to bloom, Amethyst Witch Hazel’s fragrant, mauve-colored flowers can appear as soon as late winter. With blueish-green foliage that transforms in fall to brilliant red and orange, this unique variety will grow to 8'-10' tall in a nicely rounded shape. Along with its delicate blossoms, soft fragrance, and striking fall display, this shrub boasts exceptional hardiness, even in challenging soil conditions like wet or salt-affected areas.
