Description
Juglans regia 'Hartley'
Hartley is a consistent producer with large, thin-shelled, well-sealed nuts and light-colored flavorful meats. Discovered by Mr. and Mrs. John Hartley of Napa in 1909. the Hartley has unknown parentage but rose to become one of the most popular planted commercial walnuts through the mid 1900s. The tree is medium to large and moderately spreading. A bit earlier than the popular Franquette walnut, it does share some of its hardiness. The Scharsch Franquette and the Hartley work well together as pollinators.

Planting & Care
Walnuts prefer deep, rich, fertile, well-drained soil. Walnuts have deep tap roots and do not do well at all planted in containers. Water regularly, at least weekly, during the first year. Keep the soil evenly moist, but not wet. Walnut trees should be left to grow naturally without pruning. Trees can grow to 100' and live for 75 years. A single walnut tree can self-fertilize, but production increases when planted with other walnut trees.
