The York Hazelnut is a high yielding deciduous tree. It produces delicious medium to large sized nuts that are great for eating or making a paste. Known to be resistant to eastern filbert blight.
It has a long bloom season and is compatible with most cultivars, making it a great pollinizer. Try pairing York Hazelnut with Yamhill Hazelnut.
Not all hazelnuts pollinate with each other so it is important to pick the correct pollination pairs. Two compatible varieties of hazelnut are required to produce nuts. Nuts will only be produced once maturity is reached, around 2-3 years.
Carpathian English Walnut is a great shade tree or a fantastic addition to a food garden. The taste is described as having a full flavour with a hint of sweetness and butterscotch. They are great for fresh eating, cooking, and baking. Thin shelled nuts split right down the center, making them easy to crack. Harvest ranges from late September to early October.
It is known for being highly productive and more cold hardy than other English Walnut varieties.
Carpathian English Walnut is considered to be self pollinating but planting with a second variety will result in greater yields. It can be cross pollinated with Black Walnut and others.
