Description
Black Walnut, Juglans nigra, if grown for nut production, I believe, is more reliable the further north it is grown, compared to the common variety Juglans regia. So ideal for woodland, agroforestry, or would certainly make a beautiful tree in any large garden.
Juglans nigra is an impressive Walnut tree that was introduced from Central and Eastern America to Europe in 1629. The foliage of the Black Walnut is very different to the Common Walnut, exhibiting a leaf which consists of up to 23 leaflets, making them long and Ash like in appearance. The nuts are produced in abundance as the summer progresses and are contained in a very hard shell, so are not too easy for squirrels to squander.
