Hamamelis x intermedia 'Diane' | Diane Witch Hazel

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Hamamelis × intermedia 'Diane' is a deciduous shrub that produces rich copper-red flowers from mid to late winter, adding a bold splash of color to the dormant landscape. Each bloom consists of narrow, crinkled petals that emerge along bare branches, releasing a subtle fragrance. As the seasons progress, the dark green summer foliage transitions into a spectacular display of orange, red, and gold in autumn, making it one of the most vibrant witch hazels for fall color.

Originally introduced in Belgium in the 1960s, 'Diane' is widely regarded as one of the best red-flowering witch hazel cultivars. Compared to other varieties, its flowers are larger and more intensely pigmented, maintaining their deep red hue rather than fading to orange as some red-flowered selections do. This makes 'Diane' a distinctive choice for gardeners looking to enhance their winter and fall landscapes with long-lasting seasonal interest.
