The last pic would be a great multi-plant pic! (if you haven't done it already)

Great article, with lots of good info! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Marilyn. It might be posted already...I will check.

Excellent article, thank you for the list of juglone tolerant plants.

When I moved on to my 3 acre property here in west Alabama, there was black walnut tree in the back yard just south of my kitchen. Believing the mythology that the black walnut would poison anything I planted in my back yard, I had the tree cut down. I gave the basketball hoop attached to the trunk of the tree to the guy who cut the tree down. There had not been a boy living on my property for more than 50 years, so the walnut certainly was a venerable tree. And in the South, a mature deciduous shade tree of any kind would be welcome in the sweltering hot summers. And the walnuts would have provided some diversity to the several pecans that are also in my back yard.

As I learned more and more about juglone, I regretted cutting the tree. I didn't even salvage the lumber from the 100+ old walnut tree which would be very valuable.

So thank you for posting this article. Perhaps some black walnut tree, will be spared from the fate of mine. Juglone tolerance is also discussed in Gaia's Garden, by permaculture writer Toby Hemenway.

Thanks to all for the thumbs up. Hazelnut, sorry to hear about your tree. I might honestly have done the same thing if I had known right off that I had black walnut trees. Fortunately I started gardening with some success before I knew what they were. And thanks for the additional reference too!

Thanks for the work you did making such an extensive list of plants!

The last two pics of your "Black Walnut Trees Are Not Your Enemy" article are good candidates for multi-plant pics. Did you ever get around to them?

Marilyn, yes, I did post the photo. I have several shots of that border since it changes through the season.

Then, I'll have to go look for them to view.

I have planted Magnolia trees under the former drip area of a black Walnut I cut down,will there still be Juglone present in the soil after 2 yrs?

Various extension sources I checked would suggest the juglone could dissipate after a number of months. Should be okay after two years.
