Witch hazel is a leather-leafed deciduous shrub native to the eastern United States. The bottoms of its leaves are dull, gray, but the upward-facing surfaces of the leaves are shiny green.
Witch hazel is easy to recognize in the woods in autumn because as other trees are losing their leaves, witch hazel is covered with threadlike, golden-yellow flowers. Both the bark and the leaves are used in herbal medicine.
