Grown less frequently than H. diptera but worthy of planting. Grow as an understory tree in a mixed or deciduous woodland. It blooms in early spring as the leaves appear and is more dainty than H. diptera. Does well when planted in association with Ericacious plants such as azaleas.

Low growing groundcover. Can be used as a turf substitute in low traffic areas.

Grow as stands of flowers in moist areas.
