A squirrel visits my neighbour's hazel bush every autumn and kindly buries
some of his booty in my garden. I now have two baby hazel bushes. Does
anyone know how big they have to be or how many years it is before they
fruit? The neighbour doesn't know as the bush was there when he bought the
house.

About 12 feet high and 10 feet across, but if you have room they are well
worth while.

I pruned my hazel last year, and stocked up on firewood - and some
it it had to be split :-)
