1 Year Old Airprune Bareroot Seedling 18"-24"+

Buartnuts are a hybrid walnut tree combining genetics of the butternuts and heartnuts. This species is more disease resistant than butternuts and have larger easier to crack nuts. Our seedlings were grown from genetic material coming from Jack Gellatly’s heritage nut farm. The parent trees are all mature, disease free and producing copious amounts of nuts. These specimens would be more suitable for experimenting in colder climates because of their butternut parentage.
