Witch-Hazel

The Witch-Hazel is in full bloom at the moment !
It’s a well known strong winter bloomer with striking shaped flowers.

This large shrub or small deciduous tree, native to China, Japan and north America, was introduced into European gardens at the end of the 19th century.

The picture shows a cross breeding between a Chinese and a Japanese Witch-Hazel.
Top right in my picture you can see a macro detail of the flowers.
