Probably can be container grown, but why would you want to grow
Witchhazel??? It's a small ugly brush like plant that has no
redeeming qualities whatsoever as a landscaping plant, it's
essentially a weed. You'd be much wiser to buy witchhazel lotion at
any drugstore as an astringent, for like $2 a pint.... most prople,
male and female, use witch hazel to relieve the pain and itch of
crotch rot.

Oh wow, I had no idea. I just wanted some winter colour and scent. What would you recommend?

Maybe something like rosemary which you can also use as a herb.

I'd go with Witch Hazel in a large container, when not in flower it can
be moved away from the focal point.

I had a with hazel that I grew in a large tub out on my deck. Never
had a problem with it there.
