Arrvied in december
One of the only trees to actually winter over here and break dormancy, despite being planted in december before our first blizzard.

Great plants received!
I'm very happy with my baby Witch Hazel trees that I received! They look very healthy and have a very good size! I just planted them and I'm waiting for them to bloom this spring :)

Great so far!
I received 3 dormant bare root plants about 2 weeks ago, potted them up the day after I received them, and have been watering them regularly, they've already sprung to life, sprouting new leaves every day. I'm in zone 7a. They seem really healthy, and I'm really looking forward to planting them in the ground and watching them flourish in the future!
