So often the skies are grey now, but the witch hazel always brightens my day. <br /><br />I notice a question from Alan about deer. I have LOTS of those but they have never touched my hamamelis virginiana. pat@siteandinsight.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362106194878068781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-89104852547993634352017-11-12T14:41:55.367-06:002017-11-12T14:41:55.367-06:00I am going to order one this fall.

I’ve found a lot of recommendations for sunny rain gardens, but this one is mostly in the shade, with some morning sun. Do you think this might work in the lower part?Melanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07333947904347009628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-81930059288788660672017-11-10T21:14:28.200-06:002017-11-10T21:14:28.200-06:00This is the best year ever...Might be its age!This is the best year ever...Might be its age!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-13771940309857055862017-11-10T20:40:03.099-06:002017-11-10T20:40:03.099-06:00I love witch hazels.

Do you have any growing (and doing well) in full sun settings?Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07402416428574401646noreply@blogger.com
