Trees inoculated with French black truffles (Tuber melanosporum):
Corylus avellana: the common European hazelnut
The first and most widely planted tree species inoculated
with French black truffles. Hazelnuts are small, easy to grow trees
known for producing truffles in as little as three years after planting
and generally, to produce truffles several years earlier than oaks
or other, longer lived hosts. They also produce excellent edible nuts
that can be harvested along with the truffles from the same trees
(see
faq's page).
Among the best hosts for truffles, particularly in
warmer and dryer climates. Holly oaks are beautiful evergreen live
oaks common in Mediterranean Europe, and widely used to cultivate
truffles in Spain.
Quercus pubescens: downy oak
An excellent host for truffles, both in natural forests
and in plantations. Downy oaks are relatively small, deciduous trees
used widely and successfully in France and Italy as hosts for black
and white truffles.
Please contact us for other tree species, trees inoculated with Italian
white truffles (Tuber magnatum) or Oregon white truffles
(Tuber gibbosum). We can also obtain fresh or frozen truffles.

Most of our trees are grown to order. Consequently, advance orders
may be necessary to guarantee supply, but please check with us. We do
produce some extra trees.
It takes us a full year to produce inoculated seedlings. Orders placed
by January will be ready for shipping the following January. The year
between ordering and receiving the trees is usually necessary for site
preparation and soil pH adjustment. If you’re reading this between
February and April and would like to make an order please contact us
as soon as possible…we will try to fit you in. After April, trees
are available on a 'first come, first served' basis.
