Cobnut Tree 'Webb's Prize Cobnut'

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!
