- Black walnut is the most valuable individual tree based solely on the dollar value of the wood produced. This is primarily due to the very high value of walnut veneer; but considerable value also exists in walnut saw-timber, as well as the production of nuts.
- Our black walnut seeds stock originated from the University of Purdue developed from selections made for rapid height and diameter growth and good form resulting in a final product with higher quality marketable timber in less time. These results increase the chances for obtaining veneer grade lumber and high-quality trees desirable for landscaping.
