Trees of the Wepster variety are characterized by vigorous growth and have a rounded, moderately upright crown shape, suitable for mechanical harvesting. The variety is early, with fruit ripening occurring 7–14 days earlier than the Barcelona variety.
The plant possesses complete resistance to eastern filbert blight (Anisogramma anomala) and high resistance to big bud mite. The variety is self-sterile and requires the planting of pollinators with a matching flowering period.
The fruits are small and round. The kernel is of high quality with a low percentage of defects, is easily blanched, and has a kernel percentage of 44–46%. The variety is intended for the confectionery and chocolate industry.
