- Species: Hazelnut
- Flavour: Delicate and delicious flavour
- Use: Eating, cooking
- Flowering Time: December to February
- Flower Colour: Dusky pink catkins
- Harvest Time: September to November
- Pollination: Not self-fertile. Needs a pollination partner nearby - another variety of filbert, any hazelnut or cob will pollinate, even the native hazel ‘Corylus avellana’ is a suitable pollinator and is often found in native hedgerows.
- Position: Full sun to partial shade
- Soil Type: Any fertile, well-draining soil. Will tolerate less than perfect conditions but prefers well drained, loamy soils. If your soil is heavy or sandy, mix in some perlite or fine horticultural grit when planting, to improve drainage.
- Habit: Grows with a neat bushy habit
- Hardiness: Fully hardy. This tree will survive under any conditions, including the odd snowy winter in the UK. The one thing to watch out for is blossoms being affected by frost. If there is frost forecast when your tree is in blossom, you should wrap it overnight with horticultural fleece or bubblewrap.
- Pest & Disease Resistance: Generally pest and disease free
- Planting Time: Best planted from September to November.
- Planting: Choose a protected location in full sun or partial shade. If your soil is heavy or sandy, amend it with perlite or horticultural grit to improve drainage.
- Pruning: Prune annually in mid to late February to maintain the tree's shape and encourage cropping.
- Frost Protection: While the tree is fully hardy, the blossoms can be damaged by late frosts. If frost is forecast while the tree is in blossom, protect it overnight with horticultural fleece.
