(Castanea mollisima) -Full to Part Sun– Spreading growth, height 30-50′, plant two for pollination
Seedlings from improved varieties. These beautiful spreading trees produce loads of large nuts at a younger age than most nut trees. Leaves glossy green. Beware the husks which are incredibly spiny (like a sea urchin), use gloves to get out any nuts that don’t drop free. But slice a cross in the hull, roast over a fire, peel and dip in melted butter—you’ll have a treat that will warm you up quick on cool fall/winter evenings! Unique for their starchiness amongst nuts—a tree-based carbohydrate source. Immune to chestnut blight. Prefers acidic soils—never put lime around a chestnut tree! Plant two for pollination. Full to part sun; Zone 4-8. Height 30-50’

(Corylus avellana) -Full Sun to Shade– edible ornamental, 12-15′ tall, plant 3-5 for pollination
This is the European hazel that you recognize from store-bought hazelnuts. Shrubby growth gets 8-12’ tall with 6-8′ spread. Fall foliage is stunning with colors all over the spectrum. Showy male catkins in the winter and spring. Parent is resistant Eastern Filbert Blight so seedlings should have good resistance but not guaranteed. Plant two, ideally three or more for pollination. Can take half-day to full sun. Space 4-8’ apart.
