Planting & Care
Walnuts prefer deep, rich, fertile, well-drained soil. Walnuts have deep tap roots and do not do well at all planted in containers. Water regularly, at least weekly, during the first year. Keep the soil evenly moist, but not wet. Walnut trees should be left to grow naturally without pruning. Trees can grow to 100' and live for 75 years. A single walnut tree can self-fertilize, but production increases when planted with other walnut trees.
