Walnut Broadview is an extremely popular choice for UK gardeners. This is an outstanding variety of grafted Walnut, being very hardy and late into leaf - so is rarely damaged by frost. Compact in habit, Broadview can start cropping as early as its third year and produces a heavy crop of nuts. Despite being a compact variety, if left un-pruned Broadview will grow to a fairly large tree - up to 30 feet (9 metres) tall with a spread of 20 feet (6 metres). With careful pruning a fruiting bush of around 12 - 15 (3.65 - 4.6 metres) can be produced.
Self Fertile.
We sell the tree in 3 formats depending on the time of year & availability:
1BR = 1 year old maiden bare root tree sold from Nov to Spring. Approx 120 - 150cm tall. Bare roots will be wrapped in a bag.
2BR = 2 year old bare root tree sold from Nov to Spring. Approx 120 - 150cm tall. The tree will have been grown an extra year in our fields and benefits from a thicker trunk / root system and will be more likely to produce fruit this coming summer.
9L = 2 year old tree that has spent approx 1 year growing in a poly pot ( polythene 9 litre bag ). Approx 120 - 150cm tall. The tree will benefit from a more developed root system and can be planted all year round. The tree will also haves a thicker trunk and will be more likely to produce fruit this summer.
