CORYLUS avellana 'Contorta'

Price £ 150.00

Short description

Corkscrew Hazel. Harry Lauder?s Walking Stick. A form of our native Hazel this plant really comes into its own in winter when the contorted, twisted bare stems reveal their stunning shapes against the winter sky as can be seen in the picture. Long catkins in spring add to the overall effect. The foliage in summer is also curled and distorted and is considered unattractive by some and therefore the shrub may be best placed towards the back of a border but still ensure it will be prominent for its winter display. The stems are favoured for floral displays. Prefers full sun to partial shade. Height 3m+. Spread 3m+ , plant in fertile well-drained soil, tolerates chalky soils.
