European Hazelnut Tree Seeds 4+ Corylus avellana Edible Nut Hardy

European Hazelnut (Corylus avellana), also called Filbert, is a fast-growing, hardy shrub or small tree that produces delicious edible nuts. Growing 12–16 ft tall with attractive rounded leaves and variable fall colors (orange, rose, red, yellow, green), it is perfect for hedges, wildlife food, or specimen planting. Early spring brings pendulous yellow male catkins and small red female flowers, followed by clusters of 1” hazelnuts ripening in late summer.

Nut kernels are tasty, nutritious, and versatile—great fresh, roasted, ground into paste, or as toppings for chocolate and desserts. Hazelnuts are high in vitamins A, E, and B group.
