Details

When you place your order, a beautiful Hazel tree, botanical name: Corylus avellana, will be freshly selected by our devoted gardeners here, before being wrapped and placed in its luxury parcel. 

This Hazel tree (total height 50cm+ or 30cm+) is quite happy to be lightly pruned in early spring and will reach a height of 2 metres in 5 years, if allowed to grow naturally. 

A card with your personal message, the story of your Hazel tree's ancient symbolism and a full care guide is also enclosed with your gift. Add a personalised brass heart, star or plaque (see images) engraved with your message so this special gift is always remembered.

This deciduous tree naturally sheds its leaves every autumn and will remain in its dormant phase all winter. Fresh, new leaves will grow in spring and it’s well worth the wait. Read more about deciduous trees here.

Tree Care

Every tree is growing in its organic pot filled with top-notch compost, so no green fingers are required, just natural daylight and water. We have added special nutrients to your Hazel tree’s compost to create the perfect balance of nourishment. This organic goodness will release into the soil to ensure your tree continues to flourish.

In a few weeks, plant your tree, still in its organic pot, in a large flower pot (one with holes so excess water can drain away) or in a sunny spot in the garden. 

The Present Tree's Organic Plant Care is packed with all the health-boosting goodness suitable for your Hazel tree. Click here for more details.
