Juglans hindsii crotch areas, where large limbs meet the trunk. It is used in small quantities to make fine furniture and gun stocks, and sold as slabs to make large natural-top tables because of its durability, good working properties, and swirling iridescent figure. Some confusion exists about the nature of claro walnut because "Juglans hindsii" is commonly used as the rootstock of orchard trees.

While self-fertile trees do not require pollen from a second tree variety for fruit / nut set, they still depend upon insect pollination for good production. Almond growers with self-fertile almonds report excellent nut set with half (or less) the number of bees in the field. Like apples, pears are self-incompatible and need to attract insects in order to be pollinated and produce fruit. One
