The Corylus avellana Rode Zellernoot or Purple Hazel tree Rode Zellernoot is a variety of hazel which is distinguished by its very dark and shiny purple foliage, which contrasts with its purple-pink catkins in winter. It is an old variety, discovered in 1887, which offers both ornamental and fruit interest. Its hazelnuts are large, round and tasty, and appear from the beginning of September.

Corylus avellana Rode Zellernoot is a deciduous shrub, with an upright habit and rapid growth. It can reach 4 to 6 meters in height and 3 to 4 meters in spread. It thrives in sun or partial shade, in all types of drained soils, not too dry. It is very hardy, down to -35°C. Its foliage appears around mid-May, first red at bud break, then dark purple in spring, and finally bronze green in summer. Its leaves are large, up to 10 cm in diameter.

The Purple Hazel tree Rode Zellernoot flowers from January to April, depending on the sex of the flowers. The male flowers are hanging purple-pink catkins, 6 to 7 cm long, which bloom on bare branches. The female flowers are more discreet, reddish in colour, and are located at the end of the branches. Pollination is ensured by the wind. Fruiting begins in September, with white then light brown hazelnuts, hidden in envelopes, long and fringed, red to red-brown. Hazelnuts are edible and have a strong taste.

Corylus avellana Rode Zellernoot is easy to grow and does not require much maintenance. Simply prune it at the end of autumn to eliminate the less vigorous branches and clear the base of any possible shoots. It can be planted alone, at the bottom of a flower bed or in a fruit hedge, in association with other varieties of hazelnut trees to encourage cross-pollination. It brings a touch of colour to the garden with its purple-pink catkins in winter and its purple foliage in spring.
