If you buy a grafted walnut of a named variety, it will produce

And quite likely be more short-lived. Grafting is a common cause of
premature tree death.

Thanks for the tips everyone. The tree is just one grown from seed off a
mature tree and dug up from their garden. I'm not realy bothered about
getting nuts on it (but it would be a plus one day), as I just like the
trees and their shapes. I think I've found a suitable spot (not too close
to the house). Tim.
