One line survivor at home.
Planted these all over our property. I fear the deer got most of them. But the test tree I saved for home is thriving.

Didn't lose a single one.
I bought these in a pack of ten. Every single one grew. I didn't thing they would. I started them in large pots so I could only worry about the ones who survived. Silly me. They all made leaves and started growing. I had to expand my plans for them.

Don't bother looking anywhere else.
If you are looking to plant Black Walnuts this year, you can end your search here. I ordered a few trees from Stark Bros and a competitor and the trees from Stark Bros were much cheaper, taller, straighter, thicker and with much healthier root systems.
