Description:
Juglans nigra, or black walnut, is a large tree known for its vibrant yellow fall foliage and clusters of tasty nuts. The tree's heartwood is decay-resistant and was historically used for gunstocks. It grows 50-70 feet tall and wide, prefers full sun, and is drought-tolerant once established. The roots produce juglone, a natural herbicide, and the tree can be tapped for syrup. It is hardy in USDA zones 4 to 9.
