McDonald Hazelnut Tree
McDonald Hazelnut Tree was introduced at the 99th annual Nut Growers Society Meeting in 2014. The new cultivar is named after Peter McDonald, a renowned grower from Wilsonville, Oregon.
The McDonald tree is very disease resistant and aimed at the kernel market filling nearly 51% of its shell compared to Barcelona at 42%. The tree’s crop matures two weeks earlier and is grower friendly in terms of size. It also has a 1% incidence of mold, which compared to other trees is much lower.
A farmers advisory committee that evaluated McDonald said it was “consistently productive with consistent quality”, making McDonald one of the most popular varieties planted throughout the Willamette Valley.
