The most widely planted English Walnut in our region, Franquette English Walnut is valued for its large, flavorful nuts and its late-blooming, which allows it to escape damaging, late spring frosts. While somewhat self-fertile, it will produce larger crops when planted with Chambers or Manregion for pollination.
