Fresh Black Walnut Seeds for Planting

Black Walnut is a large native deciduous tree valued for wildlife habitat, nuts, shade, and timber. These seeds are intended for propagation and are prepared for seasonal planting.

Growing Conditions

Light: Full sun
Hardiness Zones: 4–9
Growth habit: Large deciduous tree

Germination Notes

Black Walnut seed normally requires an extended period of cold-moist stratification before germination. Fall planting outdoors can provide natural winter treatment. For container sowing, use a deep container because young seedlings develop a strong taproot. Germination timing varies with seed and weather conditions.

Planting Considerations

Black Walnut develops into a large tree, so choose a long-term site with adequate room. Walnut roots and plant residues contain juglone; some garden plants are more sensitive to growing near walnut trees than others.
