Cobnuts and filberts, both hazelnut varieties, are low-maintenance and decorative garden additions with late winter catkins. Planting two varieties together ensures proper cross-pollination. Harvested 'green' in September, they are succulent with a delicate flavor and can be stored for winter, offering a delightful roasted treat. Trees are supplied in 3-liter pots, approximately 90-120cm (3-4ft) tall.
Planting a Kentish Cob (Lambert's Filbert) in a garden provides various benefits:
Nut Production: Kentish Cob yields delicious, nutritious nuts for raw consumption, roasting, or culinary use.
Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond productivity, the tree enhances garden aesthetics with seasonal foliage, potential shade, and wildlife attraction.
Pollination and Wildlife: Attracts pollinators during flowering and wildlife like squirrels or birds, contributing to garden biodiversity.
Edible Landscaping: Ideal for those interested in edible landscaping, combining beauty with practical food production.
Culinary Uses: Nuts from Kentish Cob add flavor and nutrition to salads, desserts, and various meals.
Environmental Benefits: Contributes to environmental health by absorbing carbon dioxide, releasing oxygen, preventing soil erosion, and providing habitat.
Self-sufficiency: Part of a larger effort for self-sufficiency or homesteading, cultivating one's own nuts reduces reliance on store-bought goods.
Heritage or Tradition: For those with cultural or familial connections to specific plants, planting Kentish Cob can honor or continue traditions.
The decision to plant a Kentish Cob or any other tree depends on individual interests, goals, and suitability for local climate and soil conditions.
