Name: European Hazel

Scientific: Corylus avellana

A.K.A.: Common Hazel, Barcelona-nut, Common Filbert, European Filbert

This Variation: This is a High Poly model. A Low Poly version is also available.

Notes: This plant belongs to the same family of trees as the birch (family Betulaceae), however it is often found as a bush rather than a tree. It occurs as an understory species in deciduous woods, particularly in oak woodlands. Hazel has a wide distribution throughout Europe, reaching as far east as the Ural Mountains, and from Scandinavia to Spain, Italy and Greece. It is also found in North Africa, Turkey, Iran and the Caucasus region of south west Russia. In Britain it is a common feature of hedgerows, where it is coppiced. It tends to produce several trunks or shoots rather than just one. The nuts are edible and often grown in commercial quantities. This species has been employed by humans for a variety of uses during the past 6,000 years. Hazel poles, which result from coppicing, can be split lengthways, and can be twisted without breaking. They were used during the Neolithic to make wattle for the construction of wattle and daub houses. Wattle fencing is used even today. In Celtic mythology, hazel nuts were believed to represent concentrated wisdom.
