Corylus maxima 'Kentish Cob'

The most popular filbert in the UK, grown commercially in Kent. A reliable and heavy cropper. The nuts are long and large and have an excellent flavour. Produces short yellow/green catkins.

Bred in the U.K.  RHS Award of Garden Merit

Cobnuts and filberts are related species of hazelnut (Corylus). They are both small trees that which bear separate male and female flowers at the same time. The male flowers are the familiar catkins and the female flowers are small, red and unobtrusive. They are wind pollinated and two varieties are needed to ensure good cross-pollination and should be planted next to one anther to aid this process.

 

Cobnuts naturally grow as multi-stemmed bushes. The trees should be kept down to a height of 1.8-2.4m (6-8ft) and should be spaced 4.5m (15ft) apart.

 

Bare root trees are only available when they are fully dormant (usually from late November/December until late March). Where we quote a height on despatch, this includes the root system.
 

Don't forget to include tree stakes and ties on your order.  All young fruit trees require staking and for better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).
