The walnut is a very popular species in our country. It is a large tree, growing up to 20 meters in height. The trunk of the tree is smooth, ash-gray. The walnut has pinnate and large leaves. They consist of smaller leaflets. The terminal leaf is the largest. The walnut has spherical, green, and smooth fruits. When they ripen, the shell cracks and reveals a light brown walnut inside, containing an edible interior.
The walnut tree begins to bear fruit 2-4 years after planting. However, this strongly depends on the type of cultivation. It thrives in warm and sunny locations. It requires fertile and moderately moist soil. The walnut tree is ideal for areas that used to be lime pits.
When planting such a tree, it is important to carefully consider its final location, as it does not tolerate transplanting, and if the main root is damaged, its growth will be halted for several years. We must also remember that the walnut tree grows very vigorously, so the planting spot must be quite spacious.
