Noted for its beautifully contorted and twisted branches, Corylus avellana ‘Contorta’ (Harry Lauder’s Walking Stick) is a deciduous shrub of great beauty. In late winter and early spring, long, pendant, golden-yellow catkins dangle like Christmas decorations from the lively, brown-barked shoots that curl and spiral in all directions. In summer, broadly ovate, crisp-textured, mid-green leaves appear from every angle of the stems. This multi-stemmed, suckering shrub is useful for winter flower arrangements and makes a great conversation piece!
