watering
Water this plant species whenever soil is drying out. Ozark witch hazel prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil; it should be watered about once a week throughout the growing season. However, avoid over-watering as this plant does not like soggy soil. In the winter months, or when the plant is not actively growing, reduce watering to once a month or less.
sunlight
Ozark witch hazel (Hamamelis vernalis 'Lombart's Weeping') grows best in partial shade to full shade and prefers a minimum of 4 hours of direct sunlight each day. In areas with higher temperatures and more intense sunlight, it should be provided with some shade during the hottest part of the day or afternoon. This species of witch hazel typically does best when it receives direct sunlight in the early morning and late afternoon, reducing the intensity of the direct sunlight during the midday and afternoon hours. Doing so will help protect the shrub from the higher temperatures and prevent leaf burn.
pruning
Ozark witch hazels should be pruned in late winter or early spring. This will promote strong growth, as well as abundant blooms. Pruning should be minimal and consist of removing dead, unhealthy, or crossing branches, as well as shaping and forming the plant's natural shape. Be sure to avoid cutting back any of the flower buds or flower branches. It is best to begin pruning when the plant is young and remove only small amounts of the plant each year.
