Hazelnut Collection
Hazelnuts make attractive and productive nut trees. This special collection combines two excellent varieties that will bring colour, catkins and plenty of cobnuts for seasonal interest all year round. These Hazelnuts are self-fertile and will begin to produce nuts three to four after planting. Height and spread: 3m (9′). Collection comprises: Hazelnut ‘Kentish Cob’ – Probably the best-known UK variety and easiest to grow in the garden. This attractive, bushy tree produces a mass of yellow-green catkins in the early spring followed a heavy crop of cobnuts in from September. Hazelnut ‘Red Cracker’ – A striking red filbert, with dark red leaves and pretty red husks with crisp white inner kernels. This vigorous tree is stunning in spring with its highly attractive foliage, and also provides winter interest when it is covered in yellow catkins which hold well on the tree.
