I\'ve never noticed bunnies munching my fothergillas, but I\'ve planted a few other ones which didn\'t make it - I think I\'ll blame bunnies rather than my gardening skills.
My witch hazels weren\'t that great this year - they are sometimes my most spectacular fall coloring plant - maybe I wasn\'t paying attention.
I haven\'t had luck keeping aronia happy - not sure why.
As for Pistachia chinense, I got mine many years ago, probably by mail. I have 3 trees, 2 are female, 1 male. They\'re 20ft tall. The female have the pretty berries & I think prettier fall color, though I\'m not sure if my experience is universally true. The following pictures show female with fruit & reddish fall color. The last picture compares fall color of the male on the Rt and female on Lt.
