English Walnut Tree

English Walnuts have a very thick shell which captures the inside freshness for a long time after the walnut harvest ends. The high oil and protein level makes the English Walnut kernel a great food source for squirrels. The tree is easily grown and provides excellent shade for those hot days during the Summer. Planting English Walnut orchards has become somewhat a rare event, because of how slowly the trees tend to grow. The medium green leaves on the English Walnut tree begin to turn gold in the fall after the first frost and are brilliant with their fall leaf displays.
