Witch Hazel (Hamamelis virginiana). As a last *HOORAH* for the floral world. Witch Hazels are blooming on my mountain right now. Though there are a few at my elevation, they are much more common higher up the mountain.
The flowers of Witch Hazel, looking like lemon zest. Not showy or spectacular but still beautiful in their own way. Complete with a subtle spice scent. Nice to have some flowers blooming now, along with all the brilliant autumn leaves doing their thing.
