Twisted hazel

This is an unusual shrub growing 2-4 m in ideal conditions. Foliage is light green and serrated, turning yellow in Autumn, but the main feature of this shrub-like tree comes after leaf drop when the twisted branches are free of foliage and clearly visible, adding a dramatic sculptural presence to the landscape. To add to its beauty, yellow hanging catkins are produced on the bare branches. Definitely a variety to consider if you're looking for something a little different to make a statement.

The contorted hazelnut tree (Corylus avellana "Contorta"), also called Harry Lauder walking stick or corkscrew hazel ~ boasts branches that twist in every direction. In early spring the branches are dotted with yellow flower clusters called catkins.  I simply ADORE this tree!!!!  Not a giant tree, but small trees need advocates too!  ;) Square Foot Gardening, Nature, Contorted Filbert, Corkscrew Hazel, Corylus Avellana, Hazelnut Tree, Hydrangea Petiolaris, Green Things, Garden Shrubs
