#2376 - Juglans regia - Persian Walnut
AKA English walnut, Carpathian walnut, Madeira walnut, or, especially in Great Britain, common walnut. Because of course it's THE common species if it grows where the English do. The Latin name for the walnut was nux Gallica, "Gallic nut". 'wal' derives from the Germanic for foreign. The Old English term wealhhnutu meant "the nut of the Roman lands (Gaul and Italy)". Juglans is believed to derive from Jovis glans, meaning 'Jupiter's acorn' or 'Jupiter's nut', and regia because the Byzantines called it the "royal nut".
An Old World tree species native from the Caucasus eastward to the Kashmir region. Widely cultivated across Asia, Northern America and Europe, and now the rest of the world. In New Zealand they have to pin metal sheeting around the trunk to try and keep the introduced brushtail possums away.
Cultivated for at least 7000 years, although true domestication was slow because the tree is very slow to reach maturity. Particularly good varieties were widely traded, including along the Silk Road.
The fallen leaves and husks contain juglone, a chemical which acts as a natural herbicide and suppresses plant growth beneath the tree. Horses that eat the leaves may develop laminitis, a hoof ailment.

Hi darling. I had to cut out 3/4 of your message. 🤣🤣🤣
So, no. We never did figure Nut Tree out. But I looked through my NUT TREE tag and didn’t see anything about this one, so I’m adding it to the list!
Nut Tree House, Nether Aderley, England.
I can’t find anything particularly interesting about this place, other than that it’s in Cheshire and it’s on a national registry, so I’m not sure why the bears would focus on it…
Anyone else have any ideas?
Our Hazelnut Shrub is nutting! Wow, had no idea the satchels looked so cute.
About year 5 in the yard from just a stick and only about 5′ tall. Deer love eating the shrub so it must be protected. Many of the leaves are chewed, so insects like it too! Fun small backyard native tree for observing and eating!
Looks like a few more weeks before the nuts are mature. Hope I can get a few before the critters discover it!
Nut Tree
I saw the photo you posted of the 'Horse Chestnut' and my mind automatically went to RBB and the infamous 'nut tree' mystery. The composition that RBB staged was a ' horse holding a phone with nut tree on the label'. Interestingly, I discovered the nuts from a horsetree are toxic and can cause a fatal poisoning. And this was staged right before they cancelled their concert.
Ha! It is a RBB mystery that’s still unsolved.
There was this submission which was interesting. This post has the RBB masterpost linked to it.
I have no doubt that Harry and Louis were behind the rainbow bears, and that it was in response to what they believed was going on at the time.
