Corkscrew Hazel | Corylus avellana 'Contorta'

From £54.00

Unmatched ornamental value - discovered in a hedge in the 1800s.
Most popular for its contorted branches that twist and corkscrew in spirals providing year-round interest - prized for flower arrangements.
Particular interest in winter, when leaves do not disguise the interesting form. Also known as "Harry Lauder's Walking Stick" - after an old-time comedian
Perfect for small gardens and grows no more than 4x4m
Colour changing, heart-shaped foliage, and long yellow catkins from winter to spring
Buttery yellow foliage appears in spring, turning green throughout the summer before turning yellow again in the autumn
Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single-use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better-shaped tree. This can stop the tree from becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
