Hazelnut
Order at least two varieties for cross pollination. Shipping to Oregon is no longer restricted. The following named varieties are European hazelnuts (Corylus avellana). It is the only species grown commercially. Hazelnuts are also known as filberts. Hazels are propagated as layered trees on their own roots. Self rooted or layered trees are the equivalent of a grafted tree, but have the advantage of being grown on their own roots. They can be grown as a tree by supression of suckers, or as a multi-stemmed shrub. Growing hazelnuts as a shrub can make it easier to hand-harvest nuts as soon as they ripen, as they are ripe nearly a month before they drop. This may be necessary where jays and squirrels are common. Self rooted hazelnuts will begin bearing quickly, often within 2 years. Seedlings will take 3-6 years. Turkish Tree hazels take 8-10 years to bear.

ETA HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana)
GEM HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana)
This variety produces the largest nuts of any blight resistant hazelnut though kernel isn't as big as the shell.Gem is a good pollinator for every variety except Tonda di Giffoni. Faults include a slightly lower yield than other named varieties, intolerance to heavy wet ground, and is probably only hardy to Zone 6-8. Not immune to EFB, but highly resistant.

GEM HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana)
THETA HAZELNUT (corylus avellana)
Most recent blight immune release from OSU. Late pollinator for Jefferson Hazelnut. Since Jefferson has a long bloom period and its female flowers are receptive late into Spring, the male flowers of Theta will increase yields for Jefferson especially when used with other Jefferson pollinators such as Gem, Halle's Giant, Yamhill or Gamma. Small to medium sized nuts.

JEFFERSON HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana)
O.S.U. release with immunity to Eastern Filbert Blight disease and high resistance to big bud mite. Produces a heavy yield of large flavorful nuts that fill their shells well. Similar to the standard Barcelona variety, but with fewer blanks and with a low incidence of shriveled kernels and moldy nuts. A long bloomer over a long receptive period. Commercial orchardists are using York, Gamma and or Yamhill to pollinate at the beginning of its receptive period, and Eta and or Theta to cover the late blooming period, to ensure maximum potential yield. Halle's Giant and Gem can also pollinate Jefferson.
