Is that Dwarf Winter Hazel? The flowers are beautiful but I'm curious about your design. Are you going for a windswept or just lots of flowers?

Hello Todd,
It is a false hazelnut and not really a dwarf variety.
They will reach to 1,5 to 2 meters. So that is smaller then the spicata.(spike winter hazel)
I am aiming at a windswept yes, because of the trunk, it was just there.
Nice species to work with, they want an acid soil, so i mix kanuma and catlitter in the pot.
The tree was in the greenhouse overwinter that is why he is flowering early,
the one i have in the ground for maturing is not flowering yet.
