Jules is the sweetest of all the Nankings. Interestingly enough, it seems to be just as cold hardy—if not more so—than the red Nanking. Some of these were left out in pots all winter long with no root protection whatsoever. Only native trees or trees we’ve specifically bred to handle frozen roots can withstand that kind of treatment.

Remarkable Cold Tolerance

The White Nanking seemed to come back even stronger, with no noticeable frost damage to the root tissue. Jules is hardy to Zone 2 and shows serious resilience.

Pollination Info

Plant with Ian or Red Nanking for good cross-pollination.
