This variety delivers exceptional yields with premium-quality nuts featuring thin shells and kernels that separate cleanly and split effortlessly. The vigorous trees demonstrate strong disease resistance and minimal pest susceptibility, making them reliable performers in diverse growing conditions. Ideal for both established and new walnut operations seeking consistent, high-value production.
