Hamamelis ×intermedia is a hybrid witch hazel, a deciduous shrub up to 4 m tall and wide that flowers on bare stems from midwinter into early spring. Give it a sunny or lightly shaded spot with moist, well-drained soil, and it will reward you with fragrant winter blooms and yellow autumn leaves.
Hamamelis × intermedia, the hybrid witch hazel, is a flowering plant in the family Hamamelidaceae. It is a hybrid of garden origin between H. japonica and H. mollis. Its Latin name refers to its intermediate appearance between those two species.
The hybrid was first described by Alfred Rehder in 1945.
