Elegant Floral Arrangements with Corylus Contorta Branches - Unique Twisted Beauty

Corylus contorta, also known as contorted hazel or Harry Lauder's Walking Stick, is famous for its distinctive twisted or corkscrew-shaped branches. These branches are one of its most defining features, especially in winter when the contorted form becomes highly visible, making it a popular ornamental shrub for gardens.

The unusual, contorted growth of the branches is a result of a genetic mutation, and this characteristic gives the plant a dramatic, almost sculptural appearance. In early spring, Corylus contorta produces yellow catkins, which are its flowers, adding a further layer of interest before its leaves emerge.

 

Product discription:

  • Corylus Contorta: commonly known as the contorted hazel or Harry Lauder's Walking Stick, is a unique deciduous shrub known for its twisted branches and distinctive appearance. It’s often grown for its ornamental value in gardens and landscapes, especially in the winter when its gnarled structure becomes particularly striking.

 

The twisted branches can be cut and used in flower arrangements, dried for decorative purposes, or even pruned into a small tree shape to create unique focal points in landscaping. It's also valued in woodturning for its distinctive grain pattern, though it’s not as commonly harvested as other types of hazel.

If you are looking to use these branches in landscaping or crafting, pruning is important to maintain the shape and health of the shrub. In some areas, the branches' unique shape is especially sought after for creating wintery focal points or even for use in seasonal decorations.
