Witch Hazels in the Gardens

It is early March, and the Witch Hazel collection in the Annapolis Royal Historic Gardens is pretty much at its best. The oranges, reds and yellows of the blossoms are stunning, and their unique shape adds a ton of interest.

To help you find these special plants, we’ve created a site map denoting the various witch hazels. They are currently all in bloom except the Common Witch Hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) which is a fall bloomer.

When you visit, please drop into the Gardens Shop and chat with staff – we can provide you with some addition information about the various witch hazels we have, and also help you find them easily in the Gardens.
