Hamamelis virginiana is the hardiest witch hazel, fragrant yellow flowers between October and December, often as the leaves are turning yellow in the fall; usually has several trunks arching into an open, rounded canopy; likes moist soil; native to eastern, central, and south central North America.

* It is a small, deciduous tree growing up to 6 m (rarely to 10 m) tall, often with a dense cluster of stems from its base.  The fruit is a hard woody capsule 10–14 mm long, which splits explosively at the apex at maturity one year after pollination, ejecting the two shiny black seeds up to 10 m distant from the parent plant.
