About Hazelnut

Attractive spring catkins appear before leaves emerge. Round half-inch nuts ripen in late summer, eaten by wildlife. Yellow fall foliage. Good for naturalized landscapes. These common understory shrubs form thickets that offer ideal cover and nesting sites for birds. Wind-pollinated.
