Hazelnut fruit seedlings – Ludolphs
Ludolfs Hazelnut, also known as Ludolf, is a variety originating from Germany that is distinguished by its characteristics and the quality of its fruits.
The fruits of the Ludolfs hazelnut are large and round in shape. The husk is usually flat or slightly elongated at the tip of the fruit. The shell is thick and firm, providing good protection to the kernel. The ripe fruits easily fall out of the husk, making harvesting easier. The kernel yield is high, around 42%, which is favorable for the economic efficiency of cultivation.
The tree of the Ludolfs hazelnut has a lush, upright canopy, providing ample space for the development of fruits. This variety may occasionally have a tendency to overproduce in some years, while in others, it may underperform in yield.
Regarding pollination, the Ludolfs hazelnut is self-sterile, meaning it does not require a special pollinator. However, to achieve higher yields, it is recommended to combine it with other hazelnut varieties such as Tonda Đentile Romana, Tonda Gifoni, or Kosford.
In summary, the Ludolfs hazelnut is a variety that stands out for its high-quality fruits and stable yields. This variety is an excellent choice for growers seeking a consistent and abundant harvest of high-quality hazelnuts.
