Cobnut Tree 'Webb's Prize Cobnut'
Corylus avellana 'Webb's Prize Cob'
- A heavy bearing variety that produces large clusters of gorgeously sweet nuts.
- Perfect for eating green or allowing to ripen fully.
- Partially self fertile, but best grown in groups.
Supplied as a bare root tree pruned to approximately 2 - 3 feet (60 - 90 cm) tall including roots.
Available from APPROXIMATELY mid November 20201 or more £17.95GBP each. Group & quantity discounts
Currently Not Available to Buy
Produces large clusters of large nuts that have a gorgeous sweet flavour whether eaten green (chopped into salads they are gorgeous) or allowed to ripen. Very similar to the traditional 'Kentish Cobb' - just slightly heavier cropping.
- Very heavy bearing and reliable.
- Vigorous in habit.
- Whilst this variety can be grown as a single tree they are best grown in groups. Consider growing them as hedge or shelter belt to your veg plot; and don't forget the 'prunings' will provide a valuable source of hazel poles and supports for the veg garden.
- For use as a hedging plant, plant 3 feet (90 cm) apart.
Recommended by the RHS to assist in encouraging bats into the garden as the flowers are likely to attract moths and other night-flying insects which bats love to eat!
