Hybrid Hazelnut varieties were selectively bred in order for trees to overcome complications of growing in North America, such as, climate adaptation and Blight resistance. As a result, multiple varieties were developed, each with their own characteristics and ideal purpose.

 

All of our available Hazelnut varieties are grown with our Earthgen Exclusive EMIPP technology, giving them the same benefits as all Earthgen trees including higher survivability and earlier fruit production than traditional bare root trees.
