Juglans ‘Chandler’ Walnut

Juglans nigra

Juglans ‘Chandler’ refers to the well-loved Chandler Walnut, a standout cultivar of Juglans regia (English Walnut). It’s known for its impressive yield, featuring large, light-colored kernels that boast a mild, buttery taste. The shells are easy to crack and well-sealed, making it a favorite in commercial production, especially in cooler climates with ample chill hours. This tree is a strong grower and is typically late to leaf out, which helps reduce the risk of frost. Although it often benefits from a pollinator to achieve optimal yields, it does have some self-fertile capabilities.
