(Juglans cinera) The butternut is the hardiest tree in the walnut family, found in its native range as far north as Ontario in Canada. It is also known as the white walnut, for its lighter, attractive wood used for paneling and furniture. It is a medium to large tree with a lofty, spreading form, not quite as large or demanding of water as black walnuts. Nuts come enclosed in a rough, thick shell that terminates in a sharp point. Butternuts have a rich buttery taste preferred by some people over the other walnuts. Plant two for pollination. 18-24 inch seedling tree

A Japanese walnut that tends to produce heart shaped nuts. Heartnuts are most closely related to butternuts, with whom they will readily cross pollinize. Heartnuts have an exotic appearence with compound leaves up to 3 feet long and unique, hanging strings of nuts, up to 20 per cluster. They grow quite rapidly as young trees and become spreading with age. Best grown in the northern half of the country, as they are susceptible to walnut bunch disease. Resistant to bacterial blight. These are grown from seed, and there may be variation from one tree to the next.
