Hazelnut
From LoveToKnow Garden
Hazel-nut (Corylus) - A small group of European and Asiatic trees, represented in England by the Hazel, C. avellana, which is precious in its nut-bearing forms for our gardens. There are varieties, including a weeping one, pendula, and cut-leaved and nettle-leaved forms. Other species worth growing are C. americana, heterophylla, mandshurica, and maxima, with its very fine variety atropurpurea, and other forms, among them the varieties of cobs and filbert nuts grown for their fruits. It is a very pleasant way to plant a group of the best fruiting Hazel in the pleasure ground, or to form what is called a Hazel walk.
