To increase our local biodiversity and support native insects and pollinators, we are planting our Raleigh, NC yard with native plants such as American Hazelnut and will continue to document the North Carolina and Southeast U.S. native species we have trialed. This includes flowering annuals and perennials, trees, shrubs, sedges and vines. An excellent resource to learn more about the required growing conditions of American Hazelnut and other plants native in your state is the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center’s tool – FIND PLANT.
