Segorbe

It is most probably of Spanish origin. It grows very luxuriantly, upright, grows well in tree form, as well as a bush. Gives yield early and fruits well. It's a little sensitive to the nut weevil and a little more sensitive to the hazelnut gall mite. Blooms and buds late. Fruit is small to medium in size, round elongated shape. Ripe hazelnuts nicely fall from the green envelope. The shell is medium thick, light brown and shiny. The kernel is round oval with a thin skin that peels off perfectly when roasted.
