2:49 the best way to tell if a tree is in the Juglans family is to crush a smell a leaf. Once youre familiar with the smell, you know it. Closely similar trees sumac (has no smell) and Ailanthus (stinks very bad) are also easy to differentiate this way.
@anasazirose2 ай бұрын
3:50 many trees grow well will Juglans sp. Maple, oak, mulberry, apple, peach and paw paw (Asimnia) are some. Other plants that grow very well under Juglans are echinacea, nigella, raspberries, cilantro, elderberry, foxglove, comfrey, and many others. These are the plants I have personal experience with.

I think that my neighbors had my black walnut cut down last spring, and they're telling me that the city did it, but the city said they did not. Someone else in the neighborhood took all of the wood. This tree was a 16 inches around in diameter. I had planted different flowers under the tree. It provides shade and privacy to my backyard. Anyway, now I feel that I should file a formal complaint to the local police, even just to document. I'm really kind of angry about this, but maybe I should let it go and just plant another one.

Police will do nothing. If they have dogs, inject rat poison into a small cut of meat and toss it into their yard. If no dogs, shoot their windows with a BB gun from different angles on different days. Won't regrow the tree but will punish those who killed it

I reported it to the police, but the cop didn't want to include my neighbor's name, who had told me he watched the tree getting cut down, and told me the name of the service who did it. I don't think they plan to do anything about. The whole thing is very fishy. They're closing ranks on me, as I guess it's a crime in Wisconsin, with a big fine, and whoever did has to pay the property owner at least three times the value of the tree in question. I'm not sure if I will ever find out who did this, but perhaps plan on planting a forest of evergreens next spring in the same area.

Fred Garvin there are black walnuts in WI too. Very common in the southeast part of the state, and the existence of this species is a big-time pet peeve of mine. As a matter of fact, there’s a baby walnut tree growing in my backyard that I need to get rid of. I tried getting rid of it last year, but apparently it grew back. This year I’ll have to dig it out though.

Most expensive wood in NY, huh!, I have 4 or 5 of these in my back yard, one just fell over last week, and the others keep dropping the green nuts on my lawn and the mower keeps crinching them up. Because the one fell in a wind storm, and didn't quite reach the house, I'm considering having the others topped off so they don't cause any damage should they also topple. They are a good 70 to 80 feet tall, but only about 10" to 12" in diameter, not much good for lumber. Thanks for the video, very informative.
