{"id":23568,"count":2,"description":"The hazels (Corylus) are a genus of deciduous trees and large shrubs native to the temperate northern hemisphere. The genus is usually placed in the birch family Betulaceae, though some botanists split the hazels (with the hornbeams and allied genera) into a separate family Corylaceae.\nThey have simple, rounded leaves with double-serrate margins. The flowers are produced very early in spring before the leaves, and are monoecious, with single-sex catkins, the male pale yellow and 5\u201312\u00a0cm long, the female very small and largely concealed in the buds, with only the bright red 1\u20133\u00a0mm long styles visible. The seeds are nuts 1\u20132.5\u00a0cm long and 1\u20132\u00a0cm diameter, surrounded by an involucre (husk) which partly to fully encloses the nut.\nThe shape and structure of the involucre, and also the growth habit (whether a tree or a suckering shrub), are important in the identification of the different species of hazel.\nThere are 14\u201318 species of hazel. The circumscription of species in eastern Asia is...","link":"https:\/\/www.skateboarding-lessons.com\/go\/tag\/hazel\/","name":"Hazel","slug":"hazel","taxonomy":"post_tag","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.skateboarding-lessons.com\/go\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags\/23568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.skateboarding-lessons.com\/go\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.skateboarding-lessons.com\/go\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/post_tag"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.skateboarding-lessons.com\/go\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?tags=23568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
