Lewis Hazelnut - Woodbridge Fruit Trees

Lewis Hazelnut

Lewis is an excellent tasting nut with an elongated shape. Pollination of hazelnuts is complex, and to make it easy, we recommend having 3 other varieties to set fruit. Hazelnuts produce a large bush that suckers, although can be trained / pruned into a low tree with a single stem. Recommend giving premium conditions for the first year as the root systems tend to be small.

Pollination Guide

  • Pollination is far simpler than most people think. Generally, unless self fertile simply get 2 or more different varieties in the same group (eg pears) to ensure adequate pollination. A more comprehensive explanation can be found in our Pollination Guide
