Product information "Corkscrew hazel"
Coryllus avellana 'Contorta' is a grafted large shrub that grows up to 2 m high. Commonly known as corkscrew hazel, the branches’ twisted growth is very interesting for use in floristry. The flowers appear before the leaves in long, showy catkins in February/March. The leaves are large, soft, pale green and appear slightly twisted like the branches.The wild shoots that sprout below the grafting point must be removed. These shoots are, however, easily distinguishable because they are straight as opposed to the other branches. This plant tolerates all soils except for alkaline and marshy soils. Fully hardy, this shrub prefers sunny or semi-shaded sites. It also grows well in containers with seasonal underplantings.
