CCorylus Avellana (Hazelnut)CC

Looking for a versatile shrub that can reach up to 20 ft tall? Look no further than the Corylus avellana, also known as common hazel, common filbert, or European hazelnut. Native to Europe and western Asia, this shrub has rounded, deciduous leaves that are hairy on both surfaces and softly serrated. Best known for its nuts, the Corylus avellana produces a roughly spherical or oval nut that has a thin, brown skin and can be eaten raw or roasted. From breads and biscuits to plant milk and sweets, this nut is incredibly versatile.  Hazel is also popular for hedgerows, and poles cut from the coppice wood are used for construction and fencing.
