Hamamelis x intermedia 'Diane' January 4th
(Witch Hazel)

We are used to seeing Witch Hazels as yellow flowered shrubs. This Witch Hazel - Hamamelis x intermedia Diane is a delightful variation from the norm - and is a particularly striking form of these winter-flowering shrubs.

Hamamelis can be grown in most soils that are slightly acid or neutral. They should be grown in either full sun or light shade. They are a natural 'woodland' plant, can grow to around 4m, and require very little attention by way of pruning. Hamamelis x intermedia Dian is a particularly show Witch Hazel with gorgeous Autumn foliage colour - in keeping with most of the varieties available - ranging through yellow to orange and reds.
