Question
Hi - I found a shrub by a stream in Concord a month back - apparently flowering in January. Any idea what it is? Tom
Answer
Dear TomW, good morning. These are the remnant flowering parts of Hamamelis virginiana (American witch-hazel). This plant flowers in the Autumn season (i.e., not in the winter); however, portions of the flowers persist on the plant for a long time. Best wishes.
