The Arnolds Promise Witch Hazel or Hamamelis x intermedia 'Arnold Promise' welcomes spring with unique, yellow flowers. Thin, yellow petals dangle from the bloom, creating a spider-like look. The flowers bloom in early spring, while snow may still be on the ground and before the leaves open. The green foliage has gently serrated edges and turns a vibrant yellow and orange in the fall before falling away during the winter.
Woody stems have an upright, spreading growth habit and support dense growth. Arnolds Promise is a shrub, but mature plants can resemble small trees. Use this shrub to create a border or provide a focal point in a mass planting. This shrub is a deciduous perennial in USDA zones 5 through 8.
Arnolds Promise Witch Hazel Care
Plant this shrub in a sunny spot. Arnolds Promise can handle partial sunlight but will grow best in direct sunlight. The soil should have high organic content and be acidic and moist but well drained.
The Arnolds Promise Witch Hazel is easy to maintain. This plant grows well without the help of fertilizer and seldom needs pruning. Trim the plant to remove dead or damaged growth and shape it as needed.
Arnolds Promise Witch Hazel Spacing
Mature plants reach 6 to 8 feet tall and wide. Space Arnolds Promise Witch Hazel as close as 8 feet apart to create a uniform hedge or continuous planting.
