AMETHYST WITCH HAZEL

Hamamelis x intermedia 'Amethyst', a standout variety of Witch Hazel, is celebrated for its rare and mesmerizing reddish-purple flowers that emerge in the heart of winter. Unlike the more common yellow or orange varieties, 'Amethyst' produces spidery, ribbon-like petals that release a soft, spicy fragrance when most of the garden is still dormant. These vibrant blooms cling to bare branches from late January through March, providing a critical nectar source for early-emerging pollinators. As the flowers fade, the tree develops broad, hazel-like green leaves that transition into a spectacular autumn display of fiery copper, gold, and scarlet, ensuring the plant offers multi-seasonal beauty in a compact, upright-spreading form.

'Amethyst' Witch Hazel thrives in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-draining, acidic soil. While it can tolerate filtered light, planting it in a sunnier position will reward you with a more profuse floral display and more intense autumn colors. Avoid heavy clay or areas prone to standing water, as it prefers consistent moisture without becoming waterlogged.
