A hazel hedge is always going to look attractive, no matter what time of year. In spring, masses of yellow-green catkins appear before the dense foliage smothers the stems from tip to toe. Later in the year a heavy crop of cobnuts will form which are always a Christmas favourite!
Purple Haze' is a gorgeous plant which gets its name from the unusual bronze-purple coloured foliage. The young spring leaves have the most intense bronze shade and turn to a deep green with a delightful purple margin as they mature through the year. This striking foliage makes a beautiful backdrop to the violet-mauve flowers.
