Title

Corylus avellana ‘Contorta’ Special ID Feature

Description

The twisted, curly stems will be the best identification feature. Salix matsudana ‘Tortuosa’ called corkscrew willow, also has twisted stems; but its leaves and buds look very different from Corylus avellana ‘Contorta’. Once you see both plants you will not get them confused!
