Hamamelis virginiana
This fascinating native produces ribbons of bright-yellow flowers after the leaves drop. The fruit then eject wee, shiny black seeds as far as 3m. A novel bush valued also for the medicinal extracts made from its bark & leaves. Excellent hedging: see the fine examples at Ottawa's Experimental Farm.
