The native common witch hazel is an understory plant that becomes leggy if it has to reach for light, but in the open, it develops into a graceful, spreading shrub about 20 feet tall.

The deceptively fragile-looking blossoms that appear near the end of October seem to keep winter at bay for weeks.
