Variety description

10 August 2026

The Thompson tree is of medium size, possesses an upright crown shape, and has a well-developed system of fruiting branches. The variety is characterized by abundant fruiting, especially at a young age, which is due to a high level of fruit set.

The variety is self-incompatible and requires cross-pollination to produce a crop. In commercial orchards, Thompson belongs to the group of California varieties and is grown for the production of marketable nuts, while strict adherence to harvest timing is necessary to maintain crop purity.
