Black Walnut tree in the sunrise. My grandchildren used to hang upside-down in it's limbs with only there feet hooked into the tree Picture two is of a few nuts still in the tree. Picture three of the nuts on the ground still with outer shell.
Black Walnut trees are valuable for their wood. Their nuts are hard to crack and there is a soft outer shell that rots away and then a hard inner shell to crack before you can get the nuts out to eat..
Each of my children in VA, PA and Ohio have Black Walnut trees on their properties. They do cause a problem with planting certain kinds of flowers that do not do well near them such as Rhododendrum.
