Distylium (Winter-hazel)

Distylium (dis-TILL-ee-um) is a versatile, evergreen shrub that brings year-round beauty to your landscape with its interesting, succulent-like, broadleaf foliage and clusters of itty-bitty red blossoms that grow along its layered branches. Blooming in late winter to early spring, Winter-hazel, part of the witch hazel family, and evergreen in nature, provides visual interest all year-long. Known for its low-maintenance nature, heat tolerance, disease resistance, and its tolerance of wet soils, Distylium is the perfect broad-leafed evergreen for foundation plantings, hedges, or containers. Still somewhat unknown, you may be introducing this all-weather shrub to your neighborhood for the first time. You can even choose your color palette, from verdant to blue to bronze. Winter Hazel shrubs provide a pleasing alternative to the more traditional boxwoods or hollies, thriving in full sun to part shade and adaptable to various soil types, including clay.

At GrowJoy, we carefully cultivate our Distylium starter plants using sustainable practices to ensure they are safe for your garden and beneficial to pollinators. Each plant is nurtured to develop a strong root system, allowing it to establish quickly and thrive in your landscape. We guarantee that every Winter Hazel plant will arrive in excellent condition, ready to enhance your outdoor spaces with its visually interesting foliage and blossoms, as well as its low-maintenance nature.
