American Hazelnut (Corylus americana) is a native multi-stemmed shrub that produces edible nuts in late summer, prized by both people and wildlife. It thrives as an understory planting or hedgerow shrub and offers attractive yellow fall foliage. It blooms in late winter to early spring via drooping catkins, and grows best in full sun to part shade with well-drained, moderately moist soil.
