Ask a Question

    These are grafted trees, not seedlings.

  • Is this a bear tree or does it come in a pot?

    Bare root, not pot.

  • Why not shipped to Pa?

    USDA regulations prohibit it.

  • How old is an ambassador walnut when it produce first nut crop

    Grafted trees start bearing 4-5 years from planting. The tree that is shipped is already 3 years old. Seedling trees may take upwards of 12 years to start bearing.

  • How is the nut different in the Ambassador compared to the FRANQUETTE? How many years does it take before producing nuts?

    Franquette walnuts are said, by the French, to be sweeter. Ambassador walnuts have thinner shells.

Very healthy

This tree showed up in perfect shape. The package and root wrap were perfect with plenty of moisture. I am very pleased with Raintree. Keep up the good work.

Disappointing so far but spring may make a difference

We planted a Bareroot Walnut but there are no visible buds below where it was pruned for shipping. The roots were minimal but the weather hasn't warmed up enough yet to cause great concern.
