Sycopsis

Stunning thin-leafed variant on the typical form of the species which usually sports leathery leaves perhaps 4X wider than this rare selection from the Witch Hazel Family. This does not seem as determinedly upright as the typical species so expect a multi-stemmed textural delight. Small yellowish flowers with reddish anthers in late winter won't stop traffic but are still darned welcome.

Our collection of this hardy evergreen, Asian Witch Hazel relative. This will become a small tree in time to 20'-30' and can be very useful as screening or a dark backdrop. Here, the Feb-March flowers forego any petal modesty and celebrate their sexual parts on full display. That brings back sadly distant memories. Undamaged by our winters in full exposure.
