A popular variety which is grown commercially in the UK. Also known as 'Nottingham Early' filbert. Filberts are round, medium-sized tree nuts that come in a smooth hard wooden shell. They can be distinguished from cobnuts by their larger husks, but the main thing you need to know is that they're absolutely delicious! Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.
