Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of black walnut tree ( ) which is distinctly characterized by extremely rapid growth rate, extremely resistant to anthracnose leaf disease, fair central stem tendency, and average straightness, thereby producing fair timber qualities. This new variety of black walnut tree ( ) was discovered by the applicant near South Raub, Tippecanoe County, Ind. in a black walnut planting of seedling progeny from a previously selected tree for outstanding timber producing potential. This selection has been designated as BW501, a seedling progeny of BW 95 in records maintained by the applicant on the performance of the selection and grafts made from the selection and will be known henceforth as 'Beineke 5'.
