Coxford is an old hazelnut cultivar valued for both nut quality and its usefulness as a pollinator. Its elongated nuts have an exceptionally thin, easily cracked shell containing a firm, sweet and aromatic kernel. The vigorous shrub begins cropping relatively quickly. Like other hazels, it yields more reliably when accompanied by a compatible cultivar, with Merveille de Bollwiller forming a useful partnership.

Coxford hazelnut tree, very productive with medium elongated, firm aromatic nuts, harvested from late September to October.
Coxford hazelnut tree produces medium-sized, elongated hazelnuts with firm, aromatic kernels.
This is a very productive variety. Harvest takes place from late September to October.
Hazelnut is naturally a resistant species, with no particular disease sensitivity noted in the source text.
Flowering is late. Coxford is self-sterile and wind-pollinated. It is pollinated by Merveille de Bollwiller, and also pollinates it in return, making the two varieties a good pairing.
We supply Coxford as a two-year hazelnut plant. In the nursery, hazelnuts are trained as a single stem, which is useful if you want to form a standard tree. If you prefer a multi-stemmed bush, the plant can naturally produce shoots from the base.
