VX211 is a vigorous clonal walnut rootstock, widely valued for its resilience and adaptability. As a hybrid between Northern California black walnut (Juglans hindsii) and English walnut (Juglans regia), it offers excellent disease resistance, particularly against Phytophthora, which causes root and crown rot.
Additionally, VX211 demonstrates strong tolerance to root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus vulnus), making it ideal for orchards where nematode pressure is a concern. Known for its robust root system and compatibility with a variety of walnut scions, this rootstock is well-suited to a range of soil types and performs exceptionally well in both well-drained and heavier soils. VX211 helps ensure uniform growth and productive orchard establishment, providing a reliable foundation for walnut trees.
