Description
Self-Fertile/Self-Fruitful: Unlike most commercial almonds (e.g., Nonpareil), it can pollinate itself effectively. The flower anatomy positions the pistil close to the anthers, allowing good fruit set even with minimal or no bee activity. Trials showed ~75% yield without bees.
Bloom and Harvest: Similar timing to Nonpareil (overlapping bloom). It reaches hull-split around the same time and shakes well for harvest.
Tree Characteristics: Smaller and more compact than Nonpareil, with high yield efficiency. Good vigor on various rootstocks (e.g., Hansen 536). Suited for higher-density plantings. Great for Backyards!.

Yield: Highly productive and precocious. Examples include 1,000+ lbs/acre at 2nd leaf and 2,700+ lbs/acre at 3rd leaf in trials. Strong performance across regions.
Chill Hours: Almonds generally require 200–400 chill hours (hours below 45°F/7°C during dormancy). Yorizane is considered adaptable to low-chill environments (similar to other self-fertile varieties listed around 250 chill hours for zone 9). Arizona’s lower deserts (e.g., Phoenix metro) often accumulate enough chill (typically 200–500+ hours depending on the exact location and winter), though milder winters may lead to slightly uneven bloom. It performs well in hot, arid conditions where traditional varieties might struggle with pollination.
