Corylopsis sinensis var. calvescens

 
Corylopsis sinensis var. calvescens
Chinese winterhazel
Common name Chinese winterhazel
Family hamamelidaceae
Life cycle shrub (Z6-8)
Flowers yellow (early spring)
Size 10'
Light sun-part shade
Cultural notes moist soil

Three years after starting from seed, the single surviving plant is finally in bloom. The shrub is still small, and hardly impressive - but its first flowers give enough of a taste of what it might look like a few years from now. That's assuming we keep it alive - its current location, on the hillside behind our waterfall, hardly meets its requirement of moist soil throughout summer - but so far, so good.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: back yard island
