Hazelnut, American

Size: 18-24" seedling

 

This tree grows 1-2' per year, reaching 15-18’ in height with a spread of 10-12’. The American Hazelnut prefers dry to moist sandy or loamy soil, but it is able to grow in acidic, alkaline, rich, well-drained and clay soils. It is also drought tolerant. Red flowers and yellow-brown catkins are produced, but this tree cannot self-pollinate so multiple trees should be planted to ensure nut production. Its leaves are deep green in summer, and turn yellow to red-purple in the fall. It can take up to 2-3 years after planting to bear nuts. The nuts attract wildlife such as squirrels, deer, turkeys, woodpeckers, pheasants, grouse, quail, and jays.
