Howard Walnut Sapling became famous in the market in a short time as a competitor of Chandler walnut sapling. The variety, which is a hybrid of Pedro x 56-224, bears fruit on the side branches at a rate of 80-90%.
Pollinators are Scharsch - Franquette walnut sapling - Cisco and Fernette. The fruit is square, round, has good shell adhesion, and the walnut kernel weight is 6.5 grams and the light colored kernel ratio is 90-95%. Internal recognition of Howard Walnut Sapling is 49%. The trees of the Howard Walnut Sapling variety, which has excellent internal walnuts, are small to medium-sized and smaller than Chandlers.
The dense hedge shape is a very suitable variety for planting. The tree needs a good pruning program to ensure growth and maintain fruit quality. One of the biggest features of the variety is that about 12 days before Chandler, its fruit ripens and leaves its leaves. Terrestrial and vegetation is extremely important for short climates.
