I had been worried about my Witch Hazel (Hamamelis x intermedia ‘Diane’) plant at the start of this month as it hadn’t shown any flowers but, as this picture from the middle of January shows, that did resolve itself:
It is in full bloom now, every bit as vibrant as last year. I wonder if this plant needs a cold snap to bring it into bloom? If so, the weather we are getting should certainly keep the plant happy.
