A friend knows of a walnut growing in the central northern MI peninsula (he has known that tree for a long time, it's just that suddenly the light went on in his head). It produces good nuts and it is in his property. The interest is, of course, that the tree is one zone colder than its typical northernmost range (at least. it is a place that has experienced a killing frost every month of the year since records were taken, low Zone 4). He is interested in talking to people about propagating it and possibly making it a named variety. Any suggestions?
