Hazelnut Catalog

During the 20th century, efforts were made to breed hazelnuts suited to eastern North American conditions. Breeding projects were aimed at producing northern hardy trees, large nuts, bud mite and eastern filbert blight resistance. Pioneering efforts were made by J.U. Gellatly of British Columbia, George Slate of Geneva NY Experiment Station, Cecil Farris of Michigan, and Carl Weschcke, whose work was taken up by Phil Rutter of Wisconsin. The breeders crossed European bush and tree hazels with native hazels creating northern hardy selections, but with variable blight resistance. Oregon State University at Corvallis, has recently produced more blight resistant selections. We use our orchards to screen cultivars and seedlings from these breeders along with our own for disease resistance. Our seedlings come from these selections now. We expect 70% of the seedlings to carry the blight resistance genes. We have some blight immune varieties as layered selections. The future is bright for commercial hazelnuts in zones 5-7, especially Ontario. SORRY, WE DO NOT SHIP HAZELS TO THE WEST COAST DUE TO RESTRICTIONS.
PLEASE NOTE THAT AT LEAST TWO SEEDLINGS OR TWO DIFFERENT LAYERED CULTIVARS ARE NEEDED TO PRODUCE NUTS. Layered trees are like grafted trees but on their own roots.
SORRY NO HAZELS SHIPPED TO WESTERN STATES AND BC DUE TO REGULATIONS.
