Filbert 'Kentish Cob' (Lambert's Filbert)

Although called a cob, 'Kentish Cob' is actually a filbert, producing short yellow/green catkins followed by heavy crops of very long, large nuts of a good flavour in late September.

As it is not self fertile, two different varieties are needed for pollination (any other cobnut or filbert from our range will do) and because they are wind pollinated they should be planted next to one another.

The trees can be kept down to a height of 1.8-2.4m (6ft-8ft) and should be spaced 4.5m (15ft) apart.

Cobnuts and filberts are available for delivery from late November until late March.

We strongly recommend the use of rootgrow™ when planting to encourage strong root growth and aid establishment.
