What have you grown? lettuce onions - funky tasting and not big heirloom roses daffodils yarrow horrible tasting cukes and tiny tomatoes lots of nasty weeds
Probably any variety grown under a black walnut. The black walnut tree poisons many plants, adds horrible flavor to others. But who knows, maybe this experiment will show which thrive. ColoradoLegaliz
Personally I wouldn't. I think this is just an experiment but growing under the tree does seem odd. Ohio State has its write up on the black walnut toxicity here. ColoradoLegaliz
Here's a list of Juglone tolerant plants http://www.hawksnursery.com/root_hawks_2009/info/UW_ Juglone Tolerant Plants.pdf
Well currently, I've got an avacado tree, a peach tree and a nectarine in the vicinity of the black walnut. I've grown some cactus like flowers my neighbor gave me but I'm unsure of their type.
I never knew this info about the black walnut, very cool. A lot of knowledge going around this website, bless!
Irie67 Nice post, thanks, I bookmarked that link. I have a walnut and a butternut and it will be useful.
well black walnuts are allelopathic so they exude jugalone or something like that from their roots that are poisonous to some plants, but here are a couple links to what people have found works pretty well with black walnuts: http://www.permies.com/t/10649/plants/Black-Walnut-guild http://www.permaculture.org/nm/images/uploads/Walnut_Hackberry_Guilds_by_Tim_Murphy.pdf
sweet onions, lemon cukes, black cherry tomatoes. i think it definitely effected the flavor. It's what's in the yard. My peaches have no problems. Add a mulberry tree to the list. I wish I could grow avocado here. I am going to have to transplant my fennel now. It's been in a pot, but no longer. The dill reseeded. What zone are you for ginger and tumeric? i don't think I multiquoted everyone. the cacti are thriving, especially the prickly pear. Pennyroyal has taken off directly at the base. Most of the mint family for that matter. The roses are also unaffected. Rosemary thriving. Yucca. Yellow sorrel. Thank you for the lists. I've been through a lot of them, and they are always a fun read.
