contorted hazel nut

I was wandering around my garden, admiring my plants and trees. I especially like my contorted hazel, it's so pretty in the winter, with all its branches twisting and bending this way and that. And look here! It grew one hazel nut this year!! Shall I eat it? Or maybe plant it?
I decided to plant it, and see what comes up. Maybe another beautiful hazel, maybe one that produces more nuts, maybe the seed won't sprout? One never knows.. but we shall see.
