Being from Puerto Rico, I have a deep love of witch hazel because my grandmothers used Amamelis as a remedy for so many things!

It's not native here but it is hardy - I'd be tempted to plant it in the shady back garden except that our soil is quite alkaline.

Does this one colonize for you?<br /><br />Though I am spectacularly late (does it count that I was WRITING my monster post on that Wednesday?), I am sharing my W.W. post (above). It's a photo tour of the lovely Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. You may or may not recognize the sunny day!Alyse Lansinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17953317608061300541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-53730319569452198942019-01-24T20:05:50.573-06:002019-01-24T20:05:50.573-06:00That's disappointing, Jean.

If you decide to plant H vernalis, you might look at one of the cultivars. The flowers look a bit larger.<br /> Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-82413845829602156832019-01-24T19:04:02.829-06:002019-01-24T19:04:02.829-06:00Gail, do you also grow the virginiana species?

The local botanical garden and the arboretum have some in their collections, along with our native H. virginiana. Lovely trees.

I see that they are hardy in our zone but I haven't noticed them growing anywhere here (although I'm the worst at plant identification, so that may also be the reason!).Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-5147887231695863672019-01-23T18:46:23.653-06:002019-01-23T18:46:23.653-06:00I hope mine will one day fill my garden with lots ...I hope mine will one day fill my garden with lots of fragrance!!Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-25100781579497379352019-01-23T14:11:48.869-06:002019-01-23T14:11:48.869-06:00I love Witch Hazel!

How interesting - and lovely! - that H. vernalis is so clever as to unfurl and furl for months - we certainly need that kind of encouragement this time of year.

I will never forget the first time I saw one in the wild for that very reason.
