Description
Sinowilsonia henryi An extremely rare plant in cultivation. This deciduous shrub is a close relative of the well-known witch hazel and is very similar in appearance with deciduous foliage on a widely spreading shrub. It is a now considered to be quite rare in the wild and we failed to locate it when botanizing where it is known to occur in Hubei, China in 2015. The apetalous green flowers in pendulous racemes appear in mid-spring. Not a stunner in flower but a plant of tremendous botanical interest due to is being the only species in the genus and the fact that it is quite rare both in the wild and in cultivation. Bright yellow autumn foliage. (-10) RSBG
