Insights
Hamamelis mollis Pallida will thrive in most positions, but dislikes shallow, limey soils. In these conditions, it is best to grow in a very large patio pot in ericaceous compost and prune hard directly after flowering. It is a recipient of the RHS AGM (Award of Garden Merit), for all round excellence in the garden.
