The 'Thomas Black' Black Walnut tree, Juglans nigra, 'Thomas Black', is one of the most popular nut trees in America, not only because of its expensive wood, but the nuts are in high demand for cookies, cakes and ice-cream. The Thomas strain is the best seedgrown clone of all. Black Walnust trees reach up to 50 ft. tall, and one mature tree often sells for several thousand dollars. Many people plant these trees not only for the abundant crop of nuts, but as a timber investment for their children's future.
