Tree Identification - Black Walnut and "Species Mop-Up"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- I'm trying to get to all those tree species that I haven't yet done in previous videos. It gets a little more challenging each time - I have to do those that are less common, or found farther from my house. Just picking away at them, beginning with black walnut.

Simply amazing ! Great knowledge.. this is what the internet is for !
I think that my neighbors had my black walnut cut down last spring, and they're telling me that the city did it, but the city said they did not. Someone else in the neighborhood took all of the wood. This tree was a 16 inches around in diameter. I had planted different flowers under the tree. It provides shade and privacy to my backyard. Anyway, now I feel that I should file a formal complaint to the local police, even just to document. I'm really kind of angry about this, but maybe I should let it go and just plant another one.
Police will do nothing. If they have dogs, inject rat poison into a small cut of meat and toss it into their yard. If no dogs, shoot their windows with a BB gun from different angles on different days. Won't regrow the tree but will punish those who killed it
You should
I reported it to the police, but the cop didn't want to include my neighbor's name, who had told me he watched the tree getting cut down, and told me the name of the service who did it. I don't think they plan to do anything about. The whole thing is very fishy. They're closing ranks on me, as I guess it's a crime in Wisconsin, with a big fine, and whoever did has to pay the property owner at least three times the value of the tree in question. I'm not sure if I will ever find out who did this, but perhaps plan on planting a forest of evergreens next spring in the same area.
@@MaryLuminary maybe a letter from a lawyer to the cop and neighbour might get everyones attention. If you have the funds
@@maxsavage3998 Yes, you are right. I might ask for a copy of the police report to give to my insurance company. I may contact a tree lawyer, even to see what they might say.
Great video. It taught me exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks!
Always interesting :)
Thanks, John! Hope all is well by you.
Everything is splendid! I was out for a walk this morning and found myself looking for walnut trees, now that I know how to recognize them :)
I took a trip to Chicago a few weeks ago. While driving through the midwest, I was surprised how plentiful walnut is around there.
3:50 many trees grow well will Juglans sp. Maple, oak, mulberry, apple, peach and paw paw (Asimnia) are some.
Other plants that grow very well under Juglans are echinacea, nigella, raspberries, cilantro, elderberry, foxglove, comfrey, and many others. These are the plants I have personal experience with.
Great video!
2:49 the best way to tell if a tree is in the Juglans family is to crush a smell a leaf. Once youre familiar with the smell, you know it. Closely similar trees sumac (has no smell) and Ailanthus (stinks very bad) are also easy to differentiate this way.
Absolutely perfect video. Thanks for the info. You come across as very sincere, friendly, and knowledgeable.
NoVa area here, New condo has a bunch of black walnut in the fruiting already. I think I'll have to taste the fruit if I get my hands on anything
Very interesting. Black walnut trees grow all over Indiana in clay soil. I hate them lol
I have driven through the midwest and marvel at how walnut trees grow like dandelions out there.
Yep they grow everywhere, there’s one growing under my cedar tree. I’m guessing squirrels are a huge help to their production.
Tons of varieties of flowers pop up under a huge Black Walnut at my place in Michigan. Growing right on the woods edge, Tiger Lily's, Daffodil, Lily of the Valley etc. Beautiful in the Summer
their leaves also look a lot like that of the ailanthus.
Thank you Peter, very helpful and informative.
Theres tons of walnut trees all over
Our Alabama Pignut Hickory has that diamond intertwining bark ..... Very cool & neat & beautiful trees!
Arboriculture student here from UMass. love the info you throw in about each species. Thank you
Thanks. I went to high school in Massachusetts.
@@petercollin5670 No kidding! Whereabouts? From Lunenburg MA next to Fitchburg, going to UMass at Amherst now.
@@DerTintinfish southeastern Mass, near Providence.
Why the hell did I watch some many other videos UA-cam about black walnut ID and none of them had half of the information that I got from this video in the first couple of minutes? Thank you for this fluent and concise explanation 🙏 This is the video I have been looking for
Love our videos! I have only found a few in my area. Some on the outskirts of dry ponds. I guess the soil in Monmouth County has some Loam to it!
there not rare here in southwestern Ontario they grow eveywhere i have 2 large ones in my back yard.
If Ontario is like New York, one they reach a certain size, you will have guys asking to buy them from you!
@@petercollin5670 they cut a bunch down in a town a few miles from where i live.
mop up tease!
What did you think of the giant walnut tree in the guy's yard? Your saw could handle it easily!
I wouldn't mind if that showed up on my mill :D
Cool! I didn’t know about that central chambering, now it will not go in my compost! Thanks, very helpful...
Dang I feel smarter after listening to mr Peter why don’t we have teachers like you hands down sir
I have been working on my tree identification. The book drawings are really missing leading, this was great!!
I feel like an expert now. Thank you!
Thank you! I volunteered for a timber tracking project but I'm having a hard time finding these.
Interesting. Can you describe this program?
Dose commun wallnut has the same hardness like the black one?
These are black walnut in the video. I consider them common walnut, because they are the only kind native. I have seen English walnut planted as yard trees, never worked with the wood from them.
Most expensive wood in NY, huh!, I have 4 or 5 of these in my back yard, one just fell over last week, and the others keep dropping the green nuts on my lawn and the mower keeps crinching them up. Because the one fell in a wind storm, and didn't quite reach the house, I'm considering having the others topped off so they don't cause any damage should they also topple. They are a good 70 to 80 feet tall, but only about 10" to 12" in diameter, not much good for lumber.
Thanks for the video, very informative.
Big green nuts...you sure they aren't just hickory trees?
Hickory nut pods break away in 4 lobes. They don't dissolve away like walnut do. And they don't taste anything alike.
You have no clue how precious trees are. Don't cut them down enjoy the beauty. Why does it always have to be about money the greed of money destroys everything
@@tonibrown6692 Stupid people like that will always be with us.
In Wisconsin, the tree that most resembles walnut is it’s cousin the butternut.
They have gotten kind of rare here from a canker that hit in the '90's. I plan on doing another tree video this summer, showing butternut. I know where a few stand.
Peter Collin Butternut has the same disease in Wisconsin and surrounding states.
Fred Garvin there are black walnuts in WI too. Very common in the southeast part of the state, and the existence of this species is a big-time pet peeve of mine.
As a matter of fact, there’s a baby walnut tree growing in my backyard that I need to get rid of. I tried getting rid of it last year, but apparently it grew back. This year I’ll have to dig it out though.
In Alabama they grow fine in clay soil
Brian South interesting. Very different climate there!
@@petercollin5670 i only say that because our farm is around 60 acres on a chert pit with a lot of red/yellow clay, it could be completely different in other areas
Thanks so very much! I'm a newbie woodworker and videos like this are extremely helpful! Thanks again and keep em comin 😁 subscribed...trying to absorb every bit of knowledge that I can so that i don't approach things half assed lol
