American Hazelnut is a multi-stemmed shrub that produces edible nuts enjoyed by both wildlife and people. In early spring, it displays long golden catkins before the leaves emerge. Its broad, textured foliage creates a dense thicket ideal for bird nesting and habitat. It thrives in sun to part shade and adapts to many soil types.
