Corylopsis (Winter Hazel) at Digging Dog
Including Corylopsis pauciflora and Corylopsis spicata
Corylopsis
Buttercup Winter Hazel
This choice delicate shrub will grace a woodland garden with the scent and sight of primrose yellow flowers on 3 in. racemes. The bristle-toothed leaves, which cluster densely on gently arching branches, are smaller than others in the genus. Long lasting as a cut flower, Buttercup Winter Hazel is irresistible with an understory of early flowering blue Brunnera.
Blooms March – April. Size: 5' high x 8' wide; hardy to zone 6. Corylopsis pauciflora (s-0028) Each $11.50

Spike Winter Hazel
Stiff, twiggy branches zigzag dramatically among the pale yellow flowers, accented with cardinal red anthers, and petals both buttery yellow and pistachio green. The final touch to all this beauty is the sweet, incenselike perfume. The new leaves that follow often emerge with a pinkish tinge, maturing to
crisp deep green. Their rounded shape resembles hazelnut leaves.
Provide a sheltered location and acid soil, and be sure to include the flowers in an early spring
bouquet.
Blooms March–April. Size: 6' high x 8' wide; hardy to zone 6. Corylopsis spicata (S-0029) Each $11.50
