Witch Hazel is a common shrub, sometimes growing tall enough to be considered a tree. It usually grows to about 15 feet, but can reach heights of 30 feet.

This shrub is very broad and has many trunks. Its bark is light brown and can be smooth or scaly.

Witch Hazel leaves are three to six inches long and have scalloped edges. They turn yellow in the fall.
