All-in-One™cv.'Zaione' :
Small, self-fertile tree with soft-shelled nuts.
Brandis Jordan (SS):
Fritz (HS):
A chance seedling, Fritz was probably a cross of Mission with Drake. Late ripening. Fritz has shown a tendency for high, consistent yields despite its relatively small kernel size.

Mission (HS):
Mission almonds tend to have plump kernels that roast well but that may not be easily blanched; they often have a strong flavour. Mission yields relatively small kernels (25 to 28 per ounce) and therefore needs to produce high numbers of almonds to compensate.
Ne Plus Ultra (PS):
Introduced by A. T. Hatch in California in 1879 Large, elongated kernels that are used for panning (covering the kernel with a candy glaze). Used in manufactured products. Ne Plus Ultra produces very large kernels (20 or fewer per ounce), which promotes yield. It produces nuts laterally on long, previous-season shoots, followed by heavy spur production.
Nonpareil (PS):
Originated in Suisun, California, in 1879. Nonpareil is used in products in which the kernel is visible. Nonpareil kernels are uniform, fairly flat, and light colored; they have the widest range of uses of all the categories.
Nonpareil has a medium-size kernel (22 to 25 per ounce) and has been a high and consistent bearer,
Peerless (HS):
Selected before 1900 as a chance seedling near Davis, California, Peerless is of unknown origin.Susceptible to frost. An early-blooming pollenizer for Nonpareil. Low susceptibility to worm damage.
