Kent Cobnut Trees
Potted Kent Cobnut Trees – Out of stock
We now have a number of Kent Cobnut trees available in 7 Litre pots – We are out of 3 litre Kent Cobnut trees. These trees are on British grown roots and are suitable for planting most places in the UK.
These are ideal for planting and producing high yielding trees. Many garden centers currently sell seedling trees and these usually yield very few cobnuts. These trees are the same trees that we grow on the farm and if properly maintained should produce a good crop of Kent Cobnuts.
Cobnuts are packed full of vitamins, minerals and fibre. In winter the catkins on the trees brighten up the trees.
Two varieties are deemed preferable for pollination but not essential as common hedge row nut can assist with pollination.
The trees do vary in size and shape but are generally between 30cm and a meter. We cannot guarantee the size of the trees selected for delivery but every care is taken to select a good tree.
On Arrival:
We advise watering the pot and planting promptly into the ground or into a large pot for later planting if required. The pot should have room to allow further root growth. The tree will need a healthy watering over the first few days.
If planting dig a hole twice the size of the pot and tease out the roots.Make sue that the root ball is level and not at an angle. Water regularly and monitor.
The aim after this point will be to manage the growth of branches. These should be allowed to form at least 60cm from the ground.
A useful pruning and management guide is available from the Kent Cobnut Association. Click Here

500g – 3Kg: Dehusked Mixed Cobnuts
Dehusked Mixed Variety Cobnuts – New for 2021
Our main cobnut varieties are Kent, Gunslebert, Ennis and Butler but we actually have over 50 different cobnut varieties in our National Collection. Some varieties will come from a single tree while others may be from a row or small block.
We are delighted to now offer the opportunity for a completely mixed bag. No order will be the same and the cobnuts will be very different to each other (some nuts will be very small, some will have more felt / skin around the kernel). We recommend these for those passionate about cobnuts, keen to taste a range of flavours and tastes. If you are new to cobnuts we really recommend trying our main varieties first.
Dehusked cobnuts should be kept cool to prevent the kernel (the bit you eat) excessively drying. A salad draw is an ideal place for storage. These mixed varieties have mixed moisture content so some will be quite dry with smaller kernels while others will be more milky. This is in part because small varieties don’t have much moisture originally and so can be a lot drier (but sometimes also sweeter). Our mixed cobnuts are available in weights ranging from 500g to 3kg.
