  • Black walnut is renowned for its strong, dark heartwood and is often used for high-quality furniture and veneer.
  • Black walnut roots release juglone, a substance that inhibits the growth of other plants.
  • When planting trees near black walnuts, choose juglone-tolerant species such as maples, oaks, hickories, and raspberries.
  • Each order contains 2 pounds of raw whole black walnuts (~70-80 nuts).

 

The black walnut tree (Juglans nigra) is one of North America’s most valuable and beautiful native trees. Black walnut’s large, fernlike foliage provides light, airy shade for those grasses and ground covers not affected by juglone. The leaves turn yellow in autumn, contrasting nicely with the tree’s rugged, dark bark.

Please read on if you think the walnuts are ordinary.

Black walnut trees were once South Ontario staples. Everywhere you drove, as long as it was in full sun and spacious, there was a black walnut tree. Not so now, many old trees were cut down and placed with new buildings and the like. 

Many can't see the beauty of these Ontario native. Even though they are stately and refreshing, for centuries, they generously provide and silently carry on...

If you are privileged enough to own or manage a land that can sustain large trees, please give these black walnuts a chance. So that future generations can also enjoy the bounty of this land.
