Fothergilla gardenii, also known by the common names witch alder,[1] dwarf fothergilla,[2] American wych hazel,[3] and dwarf witchalder is a deciduous shrub in the Hamamelidaceae family. It is one of two species in the genus Fothergilla.[1][2]

  • Height/spread: Max height and spread is 0.9 m (3 ft)[2] to 1 m (3 ft).[1]
  • Leaves: Dark green, alternate leaves emerge in spring[1] and range in shape from oval[1][2] to obovate.[1] Sizes up to 6 cm (2.5 in) in length,[1] with irregularly[2] toothed margins.[1][2] Striking autumn colors, including bright red,[1] crimson,[2] orange, and yellow.[1][2]
  • Inflorescences: Terminal cylindrical[1] spikes[1][2] to 4 cm (1.5 in) are borne in spring,[1] before the leaves emerge.[1][2]
    • Flowers: Small,[1] white, petal-less, highly fragrant. Conspicuous filaments[1][2] are 2.5 cm (1 in) long.[1]

Distribution

Cultivation

  • Cultivation: Prefers full sun[1][2] or partial shade[1] and humus-rich, well-drained soil which is kept moist.[1][2] Full sun gives the best autumn color.[2] Does well in woodland gardens or shrub borders.[1]
  • Propagation:
    • Seed Sow seed outdoors in a cold frame or seedbed in autumn or winter. Seed typically germinates the second spring after sowing.[1] Fresh seed works best.[2]
    • Cuttings Take softwood cuttings in summer[1][2] and root them in a mist unit.[1]
    • Layering:
      • Air Layering Air layer in summer.[1]

Fothergilla is named for Dr. John Fothergill (1712-1780) of Stratford, Essex, a physician and introducer of American plants.[3]

Gardenii is named for Dr. Alexander Garden (1730-1791), an Anglo-American botanist and correspondent with Carl Linnaeus.[3]

Fothergilla gardenii ( Norwegian )

provided by wikipedia NO

Fothergilla gardenii er en busk i trollhasselfamilien fra USA.

Den er løvfellende og kan bli 0,3–1,0 m høy. De hvite, duftende blomstene sitter i et endestilt aks som 1,5–4,2 cm langt og 1,5–3,5 cm bredt. Kronblad mangler, og pollenbærerne har oppsiktsvekkende, hvite utvekster og gule pollenknapper. Blomstringstiden er i mars–mai, og blomstringen begynner før løvsprett. Akselbladene er 1,5–4 mm lange, og bladstilken er 3–8 mm lang. Bladene er bredt elliptiske til omvendt eggformede eller nesten runde, med symmetrisk og hjerteformet grunn, 1,9–6 cm lange, 1,3–4,5 cm brede, med stjernehår på oversiden og hårete under, helrandede nærmest stilken og tannede lenger ut. Høstfargen er karminrød til guloransje.

Fothergilla gardenii vokser opptil 185 moh. på kystslettene mot Atlanterhavet og Mexicogolfen i delstatene Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Nord-Carolina og Sør-Carolina. Den vil ha næringsrik, sur jord og er lyskrevende. Typiske voksesteder er furuskog på sandgrunn, torvmyrer og sumper.

Arten er en populær hageplante, og blir ofte plantet i buskfelt, eller som en lav hekk.
