55412Q.Hazelnut tree
I was clearing out voluntary trees and accidentally cut down a hazelnut tree. The trunk was about 2" in diameter. Is there anyway for it to re-establish? I stuck it back in the ground and watered it... Looking for a miracle!

Certified ExpertA.There are a few trees that can re-root in this situation, but I'm afraid a hazelnut won't likely survive. You could try to take a cutting from the still-living twigs- this can be difficult, but the twig may grow roots and survive if treated well.
See this article for advice on how to take cuttings:

Certified ExpertA.Filbert trees in general are expected to live at least 40 years, though many can last longer. Contorted filbert should be similar, though I don't know the longevity of that variety specifically.

May 30, 2017A.How old are your bushes? A rejuvenation prune can bring the shrubs back into producing.

Weed, CA 96094Q.Hazelnut tree (Barcelona) –
Why are the leaves curling up? Not discolored. No obvious signs of pests or mold. The other compatible hazelnut tree is not curling like that. (I forget the name of the other tree's variety)
