Corylus americana, or American Hazelnut, is a versatile, deciduous shrub native to North America. It produces edible nuts encased in a husk and offers ornamental value with its attractive, rounded foliage that turns yellow in the fall. This hardy shrub supports wildlife by providing food and shelter, making it a valuable addition to any garden. Ideal for naturalized areas, it pairs well with other native plants and adapts to various soil conditions.
