Walnut (Juglans) ‘Broadview’

Walnut ‘Broadview’ is one of the best self-fertile varieties for UK growing and is one of the fastest to mature, producing fruit from its third or fourth year. A compact and slow-growing variety, Juglans regia ‘Broadview’ is ideal for smaller gardens, where the slivery grey bark and colour-changing foliage makes a beautiful feature. Late into leaf, it is rarely damaged by frost. Harvest the nuts green in July for pickling or leave until the autumn to dry out and store. Height: 6m (20ft). Spread: 4m (13ft).
