Description

Grow a native nut-producing shrub with American Hazelnut Tree Seeds (Corylus americana). This hardy species is widely valued for its clusters of flavorful hazelnuts, attractive foliage, and adaptability to a wide range of growing conditions. Native to much of eastern North America, American Hazelnut is an excellent choice for wildlife plantings, hedgerows, windbreaks, edible landscapes, and naturalized areas.

American Hazelnut typically grows as a large multi-stemmed shrub or small tree, producing edible nuts enclosed in distinctive leafy husks. Its dense growth habit provides valuable shelter for birds and wildlife, while the nuts serve as an important food source for both humans and animals. In autumn, the foliage develops attractive shades of yellow, adding seasonal interest to the landscape.
