DESCRIPTION
Hamamelis japonica var. flavopurpurascens is a deciduous shrub native to Japan, blooming in late winter to early spring. Its flowers feature narrow, crinkled petals that range from yellow to reddish hues, often with a purplish tint at the base, and emit a mild fragrance. These blossoms appear on bare branches, providing visual interest during the dormant season. The foliage consists of broad, ovate leaves that transition to vibrant yellow or orange shades in autumn.
This variety is distinguished by its unique floral coloration, which sets it apart from other Japanese witch hazel varieties. The combination of yellow and purplish tones in its flowers is relatively uncommon among Hamamelis species. Additionally, its autumn leaf coloration enhances its ornamental appeal, making it a valuable addition to gardens seeking multi-season interest.
