Juglans Regia
Most of us are familiar with the Black Walnut of our region… It has a bad wrap as putting out toxic compounds that hurt other plants and has a nut that is nearly impossible to access… The Carpathian Walnut, on the other hand, is the ‘English Walnut’ we are familiar with and love that you can buy at the store. Easy to crack, huge amounts of nut meat, incredibly tasty. These trees are grown out from parentage sourced in Niagra County NY. The nuts can be cracked bare handed (with strong hands)! Full, fresh, satisfying, rich nuts abound from this hardy and stately tree. All this and without the juglone (or at least very little), the compound that inhibits the growth of other plants. Great way to enjoy nourishing and satisfying nuts throughout the winter, if you can get them before the squirrels!
Your order will be of a 1st year seedling with top growth between 6-12” or so and a robust root system.
Size:
Will reach a height and width of 65’ in an open sunny position.
Site Preference:
Enjoys full sun and deep rich soil.
Hardiness:
Zone 5
