An improvedPrunus dulcisvariety is provided that is well suited for serving as a replacement for the premium quality ‘Marcona’ variety (non-patented in the United States). A distinctive heart-shape kernel in combination with very high kernel lipid quality is displayed. Good bloom overlap is displayed with the widely-grown ‘Nonpareil’ variety (non-patented in the United States) and pollen is cross-compatible with ‘Nonpareil’ and all major California almond varieties. The tree exhibits an upright-spreading growth habit with good productivity. Desirable fruit and kernel characteristics for shelled and processed almond production are displayed.
