  • 'Jefferson' will produce trees that are 67% of Barcelona. 'Jefferson' trees have a more upright growth habit than 'Barcelona', making them easy to train as single-trunk trees and manage in an orchard.

  • 'Jefferson' has a high resistance to both Eastern Filbert blight and bud mite. These trees can be planted in high disease pressure areas.

  • 'Jefferson' roots abundantly from layer beds. It can also be produced from TC, Soft Wood Cuttings, and Suckering tie-off.

  • 'Jefferson' was released for the in-shell market as a replacement for 'Barcelona'. The nuts and kernels are similar in size to 'Barcelona. 'Eta', 'Theta', and 'Felix' should be used as pollinizers.
