Lon,
I've germinated hazels/filberts purchased out of the bulk bins at Wal-Mart
at Christmas time. If I recall correctly, I just soaked them for a few
days, then stratified in a bag of moist peat moss, buried along with all my
other seednuts, out in the orchard under a large pile of leaves. By the
time I dug them out in the spring, almost every one had sprouted, and it
was a real hassle trying to disentangle the roots - think I ended up with
one survivor out of a pint bag of nuts.
