This premium walnut variety produces abundant, delicious nuts with excellent flavour and keeping quality. Its late-blooming habit provides natural frost protection in unpredictable spring climates, ensuring reliable harvests. Though capable of self-pollination, pairing with Chambers or Manregion cultivars significantly boosts yield potential. An ideal choice for orchardists seeking consistent production and superior nut quality.
