THE ENGLISH WALNUT 
Juglans regia 
The so-called English Walnut has been 
known and cultivated for thousands of 
years. No other nut species has so wide 
distribution, nor is found under a wider 
range of climatic conditions. 
Our trees are grafted on native Am¬ 
erican black walnut stocks. 
The CRATH variety is originally from 
the Carpathian mountains of Poland. We 
secured our scions from Reverend P. C. 
Crath, the introducer, from a tree now 
growing and producing near Toronto, Can¬ 
ada. It matures its wood early in the sea¬ 
son and is very hardy. The nuts are medium 
size and good quality. 
The BROADVIEW, from British Col¬ 
umbia, grew from a nut near Odessa, Rus¬ 
sia. The parent tree is hardy in a climate 
with temperatures of 30 degrees below 
zero. The tree is very vigorous and comes 
into bearing very young. We have them 
bearing three years from grafting in the 
nursery row. The nut is large, long, thin- 
shelled and of fine quality. This is our prize 
variety. It is thriving splendidly in Vir¬ 
ginia. 
The ALPINE, a very large, precocious 
variety of French origin, is doing well in 
Virginia. The parent tree is in Pennsyl¬ 
vania. 
The PAYNE, a fine commercial vari¬ 
ety from California, is prolific and preco¬ 
cious. This is our choice for the upper 
South. It has not been tested North, but 
has withstood 10 degrees below zero here. 
The BEDFORD parent tree is found 
locally. The nut is of fine quality, similar 
to Mayette in shape, but slightly larger. 
It is hardy here, not tested in the North.
