5 April 1970 Jacqueline H. Hunter Hardy Nuts to Grow in the Northeast https://www.nytimes.com/1970/04/05/archives/hardy-nuts-to-grow-in-the-northeast.html The hardy Thomas strain generally reaches 65 feet, and where it has 150 growing days between frosts it produces a generous crop of nuts. Harder to crack than the English walnuts, they have a distinct flavor of their own that is excellent. The English walnut (J. regia) is sold in grocery stores. https://archive.ph/Hj355 2020-04-30
