HAZELNUT TREES - Now about 4½ feet tall, planted in 2 gallon pots last year, very well rooted.
JEFFERSON & THETA VARIETIES - $30 Hazelnut trees need both varieties for cross pollination.
JEFFERSON-rich buttery flavored large hazelnuts fill the shells. Oregon State University developed it to suit local conditions. It has since become a leading variety in the USA because of its disease resistance and its high yields. Trees are semi-dwarf, getting 10 to 12 feet tall. Jefferson blossoms in winter and spring; a mature tree, in optimum conditions, may have over 20 pounds of hazelnuts ready to pick in September. Cross-pollinate it with Theta. Corylus avellana ‘Jefferson’ USDA Zones 5 - 8
THETA -developed by Oregon State University for disease-resistance, to be an effective pollinizer, and a tree producing flavorful and nutritious hazelnuts. Theta Hazelnut tree stays upright and compact, maturing about 8 to 12 feet tall. The tree blooms in winter and spring, and hazelnuts ripen from September to October. Plant near Jefferson; it is specifically outstanding for cross-pollination. Corylus avellana ‘Theta’ USDA Zones 5 - 8
