About Paradox Walnut

From the International Dendrology Society:

"Paradox Walnuts are hybrids between Juglans hindsii and J. regia, although the term is sometimes used loosely in North America to include hybrids between J. regia and other black walnut species. They are intermediate in leaf form and bark colour between the parents, are somewhat variable and cannot all be distinguished with certainty from other regia–black walnut hybrids except by molecular means. Typically they might have (7–)11–15 leaflets, with squarish, thick-shelled, weakly grooved nuts.

These very vigorous hybrids tend to give low nut yields, but produce fine timber. They are planted quite widely in California and sometimes further north on the Pacific seaboard as shade trees, where vigour is an advantage and nuts are considered messy. However, their greatest value is as rootstocks for grafted J. regia in the Californian walnut industry, thanks to their vigour and disease resistance.

Paradox hybrids have originated in two ways. Wild J. hindsii growing close to Common Walnut orchards will produce hybrid seedlings. Secondly, Californian plant breeder Luther Burbank made the cross deliberately in the latter part of the 19th century, first recording hybrids in 1878 and naming them ‘Paradox’ in 1893. Burbank was offering seedlings in his 1898 catalogue, noting that they showed a lot of variation. The name has never referred to a single clone and is now effectively a grex name. There is some confusion in the older literature over whether Burbank used J. hindsii or J. californica as a parent. This is easily resolved: J. hindsii was not recognised as distinct from J. californica at that time, so Burbank used the latter name, but all contemporary evidence agrees that the trees were Northern California Walnut.

Paradox Walnut can quickly make an impressive, broad crowned tree. Jacobson (1996) mentions a specimen in Whittier, California, which had a spread of about 30 m and girth of 4 m at only 62 years old. A tree of similar size in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon, was defended by local residents when threatened by a housing development in 2014."


About Jonsteen's Seedlings

All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!


About Jonsteen's 100% Guarantee

All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling. You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.


Size Chart

Seedling Size Chart: Medium

Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.

Solid Kids Sandals, Overpriced Like Most Kids Shoes 🌞
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown, Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown
My son hasn’t worn these yet since it’s December in Indiana and sandals + snow obviously don’t mix. 😂 So this review is based on first impressions rather than long term wear. That said, these seem wider than a lot of typical kids’ sandals, which I REALLY appreciate since we tend to have wider feet in our family. #hobbitfeet The quality feels pretty decent overall. They’re described as lightweight, and while they’re not insanely lightweight, they do have enough weight to feel semi-sturdy and not flimsy or cheap. I like the style and color, and I think they’ll work well for my son once warmer weather hits. My main complaint is the price. At just under $24 at the time of this review, it feels a little high for kids’ sandals and for what these are. I really feel like $20 MAX would make more sense. Kids shoes are almost always priced like adult shoes, even though they clearly use less material, and that’s hard for me to understand and wrap my mind around. Overall, these seem solid for daily wear, I just wish the price was a bit more reasonable and affordable.

Great basic and timeless design
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Brown
These sandals are a great find! They’re super easy to get on and off thanks to the Velcro straps, which is a huge win for little ones learning to be more independent. The fit is adjustable and secure, so they stay in place well during all kinds of play. The cork-style footbed is comfortable and gives good support, and the overall design feels sturdy enough to handle everyday wear. They’re lightweight but still durable, and have held up really well so far. They also have a classic, versatile look that goes with just about everything, perfect for summer outfits. Overall, a reliable, comfortable sandal that’s great for active kids. Would definitely buy again!

Great option for boys or girls
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Black, Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Black
This is really more of a unisex option for a sandal. I have sandals that look like this, and both of my children have worn this style. I ordered these for my daughter, with the plan to pass them down to my son if they're not too worn when she outgrows them. The style is very minimalistic, so it goes with lots of outfits. All the straps are easily adjustable, so you can get a good fit. I would say the length is true to size, but the width is maybe a bit wide. Nevertheless, the adjustable straps really help them fit well. They feel really sturdy and I appreciate that the sole has cushion to it. My daughter has worn these every day since I got them out of the closet and they're holding up well.
