Hazel Bare Root Plants (Corylus avellana), 40-60cm
Ideal for native hedging, coppicing, and wildlife gardens, hazel is a frost-tolerant UK native shrub or small tree. Supplied as bare root plants, it typically grows 20–40cm per year and matures around 6m high.

Features & Uses

  • Hardy in UK climates; suitable for wildlife-friendly and traditional hedging
  • Edible nuts from autumn; attracts pollinators
  • Recommended for coppicing; regrows vigorously
  • Tolerates clay and damp soils

Planting & Care

  • Best planted Nov–March (dormant/rooting season)
  • Water well after planting; mulch for moisture retention

FAQs

  • Is hazel suitable for wildlife gardens? Yes, hazel supports insects, birds, and mammals with dense cover and nuts.
  • How fast does it grow? Expect annual growth of 20–40cm after establishment.
  • Best planting time? Plant bare root hazel from November to March.
  • Does hazel thrive in poor or clay soils? Yes, as long as drainage is reasonable.
  • How does hazel compare to other nut trees? Hazel is easier to coppice and establishes faster than most nut trees in UK gardens.

Common questions

Bare root plants are field-grown and lifted dormant — the cheapest way to plant a hedge. Pot grown plants have an established root system and can be planted year-round. Root ball plants are mature field-grown plants lifted with a soil ball for instant height.
Pot grown plants can go in the ground at any time of year. Bare root is supplied dormant from November to March, and root ball plants are lifted in that same window.
