The broad, hazel-like leaves, 6”\/16cm long, emerge mid-green, turning deeper green in summer, and in autumn turn fiery shades of yellow and orange, tinged red. From mid- to late winter, spidery, lightly scented, coppery-red flowers up to  ¾”\/2cm long, with slightly twisted petals and purplish-red calyxes, appear on the bare branches. Underplanted with early bulbs and winter flowering perennials, Witch hazel Ruby Glow will give untold pleasure in the winter garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSite: \u003c\/b\u003eSheltered\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil: \u003c\/b\u003e Well-drained, humus-rich, acid soil; tolerates neutral soil if reliably moist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e Flowers best in full sun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeason of interest: \u003c\/b\u003eSpring, autumn and winter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e  Fully hardy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight: \u003c\/b\u003e up to 13’ (4m)  \u003cb\u003eSpread:\u003c\/b\u003e 10’ (3m) in 20 years\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Future Forests","offers":[{"title":"Pot | 2L","offer_id":42027761565854,"sku":"012028","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Pot | 5L","offer_id":50210498150727,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Pot | 7.5L","offer_id":50214588514631,"sku":"","price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Pot | 10L","offer_id":42027761598622,"sku":"013422","price":75.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/2750\/6590\/products\/Hamamelis_x_intermedia_Ruby_Glow_4.jpg?v=1655016248"},{"product_id":"hydrangea-macrophylla-bouquet-rose","title":"Hydrangea macrophylla Bouquet Rose","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHydrangea Bouquet Rose\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA very popular mophead hydrangea, Hydrangea macrophylla Bouquet Rose is a compact, deciduous shrub, with a rounded, spreading habit.
