Origin: by controlled cross (Moore × Success) made by L.D. Romberg, U.S. Dept. of Agr.-Agr. Res. Serv., Brownwood, Texas. Cross made in 1937 in the orchard of John Barton, Sr., of Utley, Texas. Seedling recorded as 37-3-20; first fruited in 1944; tested as T-15, released in 1953. Nut: elliptic with obtuse apex and acute base; round in cross section; shell suture usually dark at base; 48 nuts/lb, 57% kernel; kernels golden in color, with deep secondary dorsal and ventral grooves. Late to break buds in spring, with Stuart. Protandrous, with midseason pollen shed and mid-to late-season receptivity. Precocious and prolific, with a tendency to overbear with maturity. Ripens early midseason. Resistant to scab. Recommended (1990) for homeowner plantings in Mississippi. Tree: Fruit:
