'Buccaneer' is a reliable walnut tree that starts cropping from a young age (3-5 years) and produces heavier crops than many varieties Delicious walnuts can be harvested green for pickling or left until autumn to dry and store. They can then be eaten raw or used in cooking Grows to 6 x 5m in 20 years but can be pruned smaller Green catkins appear in spring, attracting early pollinators Ideally suited for the UK climate - grow in a sunny and sheltered spot for best harvests Self fertile variety - you'll only need one tree for a good crop Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
