Juglans ailantifolia as a material for snow tires (studless tires). The only significant disease Japanese walnuts are susceptible to is the Walnut Bunch Disease. Juglans ailantifolia Juglans ailantifolia (synonyms "J. cordiformis" and "J. sieboldiana" and "J. mandshurica" var. "sachalinensis"), the Japanese walnut ( "oni-gurumi"), is a species of walnut native to Japan and Sakhalin. It is a deciduous tree growing to tall, rarely , and 40–80 cm stem diameter, with light grey bark. The leaves are pinnate, 50–90 cm long, with 11-17 leaflets, each leaflet 7–16 cm long and 3–5 cm broad. The whole leaf is downy-pubescent, and a somewhat brighter, yellower
Fruit tree pollination a pollinator tree. Working from an old Spanish variety, "Tuono", researchers in 2008 started making available new self-fertile varieties that more closely match the qualities of the popular "Nonpareil" almond—including varieties "Lone Star" and "Independence". 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
