Most Productive of the American Hazels-Ecos Selections from the Highest Producing Plants at Our Farm

Selected using the most productive hazels on our farm. We began this strain by finding and selecting the most productive seedlings that were on our farm prior to us making a nursery almost 40 years ago. We also used a selection called Winkler from Minnesota and other seedlings from Iowa and central Michigan finding some of the types that cluster nuts in the greatest profusion. There actually is quite a bit of genetic variation in the American hazelnut. Eventually the plantings contained the most vigorous and highest yielding individuals. The Ecos selections now are roughly 20 individuals that we collect our seed from. Small to medium sized nuts are produced in great profusion including many that contain paper thin shells that can be easily hand cracked.

No shipment to OR,WA.
