Black Walnut
Large Shade Tree with Edible Nuts The Black Walnut is a large deciduous tree that produces edible nuts.  It would do great as a shade tree on a side lawn or at the edge of a property line.   Your Black Walnut is a majestic landscape tree growing up to 100 feet tall with an equal spread.  Its upright, spreading branches will put you in mind of strength and endurance as you sit beneath its protection from the sun’s harmful rays.   Black Walnut trees have 24 inch long pinnate leaves that will fill your tree out nicely through the summer months.  Large and vibrantly green, they will also emit a pleasing scent when crushed in your hand.  Those fragrant leaves will continue to put on a show in the fall when they are one of the first trees to turn a pleasant yellow color before dropping in preparation for their winter rest.   Black walnuts mature in the fall. They’re great to just eat raw or can be used in a variety of dishes.  Native Americans traditionally used the nuts for food and the sap for syrup.  The wood of your Black Walnut is likewise valued.  Its straight-grained nature, ease of use and natural color make it prized for furniture and other uses.   Large and stately, it will provide you with shade for years to come as well as an abundance of hearty nuts for your family and the surrounding wildlife. The Black Walnut would be a fascinating addition to your landscape.   * Large shade tree * Edible nuts * Drought tolerant
