Practical Considerations
The black walnut tree prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Due to the presence of juglone, a natural compound produced by the tree, it’s recommended to plant it away from sensitive plants. Consider pairing it with other hardy trees from our Food Trees Collection or Large Shade Trees Collection for a diverse landscape. Companion trees like the Shellbark Hickory or Hardy Pecan also thrive in similar conditions.
