more photos of this black walnut growing at the local research station, large and full of nuts this year. If you read about black walnut growing in zone 3 /-40C you’ll find either the trees are borderline hardy, or if they do grow they won’t have nuts. I’ve found 3 large black walnut now growing in Brandon, Mb that fruit proving otherwise - but the trees are rare here and most people don’t realize a walnut tree can grow in our climate. I sure didn’t and I’ve lived here my whole life.
