Named after Parlier, California, and the popular "Nonpareil" almond variety, "Parpareil" was selected for its superior nut quality that rivals the premium flavor, physical properties and processing of the "Nonpareil" variety. "Parpareil" is also self-compatible and requires fewer honey bees to transfer pollen from flower to flower to fertilize the blossoms and produce nuts for a successful harvest. High yields with fewer honey bees save farmers money.
