| JEFFERSON HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana) |
| 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. Oregon State University release with resistance to Eastern Filbert Blight disease and high resistance to big bud mite. Commercial orchardists are planting York or Yamhill to pollinate at the beginning of its receptive period, and Eta or Theta to cover the late blooming period, to ensure maximum potential yield. Seedlings were open pollinated with Yamhill and Eta, all blight resistant selections. As seedlings, Jefferson Hazelnut will be slower to come into bearing than cloned varieties and will be variable in nut size, yield and overall quality, though, with their superior genetics will tend to be vastly superior to average seedling hazelnuts. Seedlings are not meant for commercial production except as a rootstock for grafting. The seedlings are great for hedgerows, erosion control, wildlife plantings and backyard orchardists wanting economical trees. |

| RED DRAGON HAZELNUT (Corylus avellana) |
| This new selection is the only red leafed or contorted hazel with complete resistance to eastern filbert blight. Burgundy red catkin flowers in late winter on the twisted, contorted branches have a very distinct appearance. New branch growth is dark red as is the foliage, and later in summer, the nut husks are also red, contrasting nicely with the late summer bronze foliage color. On its own roots, can be grown as a multistemmed shrub or as a dwarf tree. Red Dragon Contorted Hazelnut is blight immune, unlike the older contorted hazelnuts with green leaves and yellow flowers that were quite susceptible to blight. Zone 4-9. Patented. |
