    Can an isolated Chandler walnut tree be expected to produce a reliable crop of fruit year to year or does it need to be near other walnuts.

    Chandler being self-fertile does not require
    a pollinizer (pollenizer is also an acceptable
    spelling) or a cross pollinator tree to yield
    a crop. Will produce a larger sized crop if
    there is another tree (can even be another
    Chandler) nearby.


    Walnut varieties for home production
