Beaked Hazelnut vs Shagbark HickoryCorylus cornuta Carya ovata SOLD OUT NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON 
Beaked Hazelnut is a multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub native to North America.
Shagbark Hickory is a unique tree both for its looks and uses. Its bark peels into long thin vertical strips giving it a shaggy appearance. This and its golden fall leaves make it a gorgeous looking tree. This species produces tasty hickory nuts once mature. Hickory smoke is also treasured for curing meats and its generally fantastic smell. This tree is best planted away from any buildings due to a deep taproot and large size.
