Nursery contributed plant descriptions
A small genus of only three species and belonging to a monotypic family (Eupteleacae), it's not surprising that Dan went to the trouble to bring it back from Japan. Curious rounded strongly toothed leaves turn red and yellow in autumn, purplish Witch Hazel-like flowers (lacking petals and sepals) along the stems in early spring. This is an ancient plant regarded as transitional between the gymnosperms and angiosperms.
