Hybrid Butternut
Hybrid Butternut
(Juglans cinerea hybrid)
Butternut, also known as the white walnut, is prized for its rich, tasty nut meat. Pure butternuts are susceptible to butternut canker, which has greatly reduced the native, wild population. However, the native butternut hybridizes easily with Asian walnuts and the resulting trees are typically very resistant to the canker and often very similar in form and function to pure butternut. Our seed is collected locally from a very productive hybrid parent tree. Plant at least two for best pollination. These one year seedlings grew really well this year and are measuring 18-24" tall. Hardy to zone 4.
