Walnut ‘Broadview’

One of the best walnuts for production in the UK. Relatively late into leaf it misses all but the late frosts though would benefit from some protection during flowering time if the nights are chilly. The tasty nuts ripen in autumn and are ready when the tough outer casing cracks. Best eaten once they are picked and dried, though green walnuts are good for pickling and and cooking.

A grafted tree, it should start to produce fruit within 3-4 years after planting.
