These jolly fellows are looking for a nice patch of garden to build up a new life.

Hazels looking for some new ground

Being rather a big bush than a tree, the Hazel allows you to add some layering to your garden, which will be to the pleasure of the fauna that tries to find out how good you are looking each day. Its large production of pollen will benefit huge numbers of bees and other insects, whereas you’ll be able to harvest it’s branches whenever you like. Cutting the trees down every 7 years will give you a steady amount of burning wood (if you at least have several trees of course). Its fruit, the hazelnut, is a delicacy for mice, squirrels and the Jay (Vlaamse Gaai) and for us as well. The fellows above are however not very human-minded and won’t allow you to have a steady harvest to enjoy from (from my own experience with their father/mother).

If you’d like to have one, just let me know and we’ll arrange the transfer while quenching our thirst.

A few pictures of our garden, or the garden-to-be.
