Product Description
The walnut tree provides food and ornamental timber, and it is believed that the Romans were the first to cultivate the tree for these benefits.. The walnut plant has the ability to reach heights of more than 30 metres and produces what are known as pinnate leaves, which are essentially tiny leaves that grow from the same main stem. Although it doesn't support animals as much as other trees do, walnuts still enhance the landscape's attractiveness and offer refuge. It's also said that the red squirrel has a special fondness for the nuts.
For a bigger garden, the resilient Common Walnut tree is a good specimen tree. Growing nuts in a home orchard or garden has gained popularity due to their high vitamin content, high antioxidant value, and healthy unsaturated fat content. Due to its extreme antioxidant content, the common walnut is surprisingly turning out to be one of the healthiest nuts out there.Tree attributes
