Taste & characteristics

mildnutty

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Medium, elongated nut with a light, well-filled kernel; solid commercial quality.

Strongly lateral-bearing, moderate vigour; late leafing similar to Franquette.

Early onset and high yields; increasingly planted in Europe as a Chandler alternative.

Well pollinated by Fernette. Ripens slightly later than Chandler and suits European climates.
