THE WINKLER HAZLENUT is the best and largest of many kinds we have 
tried. The nuts are produced freely, are larger than many European Filberts and 
have the choice quality of the small wild hazlenut. They are large, or very large, 
sometimes over one inch long. Often the kernels almost burst the shells open and 
they can be easily pried apart with a light knife or one’s thumb nail. The bush is 
shapely and grows to about six feet, making a desirable ornamental shrub. Tim 
foliage is good, and colors beautifully in autumn with crimson, gold, and bronze.
