Deciduous shrub with a maximum height of 700 cm (usually 300–500 cm). Its crown is ovoid or spherical, often reaching 6 meters in girth. The bush can consist of 9 trunks.

Their bark is ash-gray and smooth; if the shoot is young, then it is dark red. The leaves are large, oblong or round, with teeth along the contour. In spring they are dark brown with a slight green tint, in summer they are burgundy, in autumn they are dark orange. The bottom of the leaf blade is lighter than the top.

The flowering period is March, when the bush is still without leaves. Female flowers bloom separately from male flowers. The first are in the form of buds, forming inflorescences, the second are like earrings on a birch tree, but pink in color.

The fruits are ready for harvest in August - September. They are oblong in shape, in a gray-brown strong shell. One cutting holds 6–8 pieces. The core is round, dark beige. Fruiting from 4-5 years. The tree bears a harvest every year, but its quantity varies. Red-leaved hazel lives from 50–80 years.

It is demanding on soil richness - it grows successfully on rich lime-containing soils of moderate and high humidity, on deep and loose mountain brown soils, on chernozems, degraded chernozems, gray forest soils of oak forests, on the richest podzolic soils and on alluvial soils in river and stream valleys. It does not occur on poor sandy and marshy sphagnum-peat soils. Avoid stagnation of moisture near the shoots and rotting of the roots.
