Persian Witch Hazel, Parrotia persica, is one of the great collector deciduous trees: slow, refined and richly rewarding with age. Valued for intense autumn colour, intricate branching, small winter flowers and exceptional bark character that develops into flaking plates of grey, cream, olive and cinnamon.
Best suited to temperate and cool-climate gardens, Persian Witch Hazel is a superb specimen for collectors, designers and gardeners seeking a tree with year-round detail rather than a single ornamental moment.
