Near view of Tree-Hazel (S.P.I. No. 39907), Kansu, China. 
"The trunk cf a tree-hazel, Corylus thibetica ferox (Bat.) 
Franch. , over 80 feet in height, with a girth of several 
feet at the base. This hazelnut might be cultivated as a 
nut-tree on stony mountain slopes; it can also be planted 
as an ornamental park tree, while possibly it may also be 
utilized in certain hybridization experiments in connection 
with Corylus colwma , another tree-hazel." Photograph by
