I've been reading about the dwarf English walnut 'Broadview' and am wondering if anyone knows of an American source for this variety.

mind your own beeswax, just joking' I dont know were you could get them from they are hard enough to find in this country, but I think the key you need is m9 root stock that it is grafted on to,

Sorry Cliffo but that m9 rootstock only applies to Apple varieties and though technically the Juglandaceae (Walnut) family is a Rosid family, they are still far from the Pomme fruit section of the Rosaceae family ie Apples, Pears etc. M9 would not graft to a Walnut for biochemical physiological reasons.

I think Broadview is just naturally dwarf. The rootstock it's on could be a Walnut (Juglans) or other member of the Juglandaceae family such as (Hickory) Carya.
