into bearing very early and is similar to Mayette in habit of growth.

variety. The nut is oblong, rather pointed at the apex; shell of 
medium thickness, kernel full. Produces nuts on outer branches and 
is subject to some sunburn. Because of early, heavy production, 
tree is slower in growth than other varieties.
