Description
This early variety of Filbert has the somewhat confusing name of 'Nottingham Cobnut' - which is why it is so often described as a Cobnut. In reality there is little difference between a Cobnut and Filbert!
A popular commercial variety that produces large, richly flavoured nuts.
- Very heavy bearing and reliable.
- Vigorous in habit.
- Whilst this variety can be grown as a single tree they are best grown in groups.Consider growing them as hedge or shelter belt to your veg plot; and don't forget the 'prunings' will provide a valuable source of hazel poles and supports for the veg garden.
- For use as a hedging plant, plant 3 feet (90 cm) apart.
