Corylus heterophylla, the Asian hazel, is a species of hazel native to eastern Asia in northern and central China, Korea, Japan, and southeastern Siberia.[1]

It is a deciduous shrub or small tree growing to Шаблон:Convert tall, with stems up to Шаблон:Convert thick grey bark. The leaves are rounded, Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert broad, with a coarsely double-serrated to somewhat lobed margin and an often truncated apex. The flowers are wind-pollinated catkins; the male (pollen) catkins are pale yellow, Шаблон:Convert long, while the female catkins are bright red and only Шаблон:Convert long. The fruit is a nut produced in clusters of 2–6 together; each nut is Шаблон:Convert diameter, partly enclosed in a Шаблон:Convert long, bract-like involucre (husk).[1][2]

It is very similar to the closely related common hazel (C. avellana) of Europe and western Asia, differing in the leaves being somewhat more lobed.[2]

Uses

The nut is edible, and is very similar to the common hazel nut; it is cultivated commercially in China.[1]
