Planting & Care

This native Hazel hedge is a haven for wildlife and produces delicious, edible hazelnuts for you to harvest in autumn.
From January to March, the bare branches are decorated with beautiful, fluffy yellow catkins, providing early interest.
In autumn, its large, round leaves transform into striking shades of orange and gold.
A fast-growing and fully hardy shrub, it can reach up to 8m but is easily maintained at a smaller size of 1-5m to suit your garden.
Pruned stems make excellent, sturdy stakes for supporting peas, beans, and other climbing plants.
Provides a vital habitat and food source for over 70 insect species, as well as birds, dormice, and squirrels.

Species: Hazel
Features: Native to UK
Flowering: March to April
Harvesting: September to October
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Soil: Any well-drained, fertile soil
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H6: hardy in all of UK, -20 to -15°C)
Habit: Bushy and upright
Eventual Spread: 4-8m unless pruned
Growth Rate: Fast, expecting 40-60cm per year

Planting Time: Plant your bare root hazel from October to March. In winter, plants can be stored for several weeks if kept cool and dark. In spring, plant within a few days of arrival.
Planting: Hazel prefers well-drained, loamy soil but will tolerate less than perfect conditions. If your soil is heavy clay or very sandy, improve drainage by mixing in some perlite or fine horticultural grit when planting.
Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring (February-March) before new leaves appear. This is the dormant season, allowing the plant to use its resources for strong regrowth.
Pest & Disease: Generally disease-free, but may occasionally be affected by caterpillars, gall mites, aphids, or sawflies.
