Are all hamamelis deciduous?
I am thinking of getting one, the ruby glow or sunburst.
I have an ugly shrub in my front that looks like it may be a pink variety of hamamelis. The leaves stay all year though, and because of that the flowers are hardly visible. This one has ugly leaves...
If they are all like that in CA, I am not getting one!
Please advise?
