About Hazelnut
Round half-inch nuts ripen in late summer, eaten by wildlife. Attractive catkins form in the fall and persist through winter before blooming in the spring. Yellow fall foliage. Good for naturalized landscapes. The wood can be used to weave baskets and fences. These common understory shrubs form thickets that offer ideal cover and nesting sites for birds. Wind-pollinated.
