Also, I want to say that I've never seen a Witch Hazel bloom before.

The show was impressive, but so brief! Witch hazel, on the other hand, blooms for about a month in early spring. Sign me up! Your orangey-red variety is a nice change from the more common yellow.

Thanks for letting me know i am not alone in cyber world! Love love love the Hamamelis cultivar 'Diane'. Between 'her' and 'Arnold Promise' our current spring temperatures registering in the 30's (after a couple of 80 degree days last week!) are manageable. Orange is the NEW IT color, don't you think?<br />PS We who grew up in the 70's are still trend setters!
