Ultra Northern English Walnut (Bundle of 2) Size:2-4 ft. (4th year)

Ultra Northern English Walnut (Bundle of 2) Size:2-4 ft. (4th year)Overview These English Walnuts come from a Carpathian English Walnut mother tree that has been growing and producing nuts prolifically for nearly 30 years in a windy, exposed Zone 5 site.

Background & Selection We have tested multiple English walnut

Pretty borage-like flowers

Trees in this area experienced mid-winter lows approaching −40°F on January 12

Ontario and widely reported as being introduced in 1928

which is described elsewhere on the site

Norland has survived −47°F in multiple winters in Gallatin Gateway

although we think that may have been an anomaly (maybe due to this tree's deep soils and perhaps good airflow)

but with several notable improvements
