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. |

THETA HAZELNUT (corylus avellana) |
Recent blight resistant 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 Hazelnut 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. |
