Hazels are deciduous trees and large shrubs with broad leaves, and showy male catkins in early spring, followed by edible nuts. I found this plant in quite a wild environment, surrounded by species like Salix caprea (Goat willow), Urtica diodica (Nettle) and Hyacinthoides non-scripta (Bluebell).
This specific plant had about 13-14 meters which for hazel species is unusual. It's branches on the other hand were not as tangled as they sometimes happen to be. The tree had few fruits and fully grown leaves. The topsoil seems to have quite a thick layer and there is a little of human activity therefore the environment is more natural.
