It will work if it gets cold enough. I find it easier to put in zip lock bags with little damp peat moss, or just in a zip lock bag and in the bottom drawer of the fridge till the ground is warm enough to plant. But you may be disappointed to wait till they produce and find that you don't have anything like what was planted. Best way is to graft scions from that bush come spring and reproduce what you know is good. Only way to be sure.

******************************
Has anyone had success planting freshly harvested hazelnuts in trays or tubes & leaving them in
an unheated greenhouse for the winter? My son pointed out hazel that we had forgotten to pick
last week & it turns out to have overly large (up to a third larger than the majority of other
varieties I have) nuts. Unfortunately the rabbits ate that particular ID tag so Im unclear
what it is, but I do know that the bush is about 3 years old & gave me about a half gallon of
husked nuts. mIEKAL
