Corylus Avellana 'American White' (American White Hazelnut) is a productive deciduous tree valued for its delicious edible nuts, attractive rounded form, and seasonal ornamental appeal. Fresh green foliage provides dense summer coverage before turning warm golden-yellow in autumn, making it an excellent choice for edible gardens, orchards, or larger home landscapes. Its manageable size and reliable cropping make it well suited to both home gardeners and commercial plantings.
In late winter, elegant yellow catkins emerge before the foliage, adding subtle seasonal interest and supporting pollination. The nutritious hazelnuts mature in late summer to autumn and are ideal for fresh eating, roasting, baking, or long-term storage. Hardy, low maintenance, and long-lived, Corylus Avellana 'American White' is a rewarding investment for gardeners seeking both ornamental beauty and abundant home-grown harvests.
