Little Prospect Witch Hazel is a compact native deciduous shrub with a dense habit and wavy oblate dark green leaves that have irregular chartreuse to bright yellow margins. Abundant clusters of lightly fragrant pale yellow branch-hugging flowers with crinkled ribbon petals bloom in late fall after the foliage drops. Best bloom in full sun and moist, acidic, well-drained soils.
