Hazel is a big, usually multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub reaching between 4-8 m in height. It is found in natural stands throughout Europe and is cultivated worldwide for its nutritious nuts which also serve as an important food supply to many animals and birds, especially during the winter.
Hazel is a highly adaptable pioneer species, able to grow in both sun and shade. The best growing conditions are on fertile and nutrient-rich soils in a mild climate. The tree is, however, extremely tolerant to different climatic conditions and is even able to withstand frost in the growing season. It is often found in mixed deciduous forests, where it is an important species in the understorey. The tree also grows in forest edges, meadows, rocky places and along roads and streams.
The wood is not durable, but its branches have historically been cultivated in coppices and used for wattle, fence-making and as fodder for cattle.
