Hardy Nuft-Trees 
There aré good nuts to be grown in the 
north. Chestnuts from seed are young, 
heavy bearers. The grafted Walnuts are 
hardier and also bear heavily and young. 
These two together are the most practical 
nuts for the north. 
PLANTING and CARE 
The first two years mulch well with hay or straw. 
Water if drought comes. Keep all side buds from 
developing in useless low branches (below 7 feet). 
Do not plant deepr than they were in nursery. 
Plant like any deciduous trees (see page 53). 
















BLACK WALNUT 
One of our most beautiful native trees, growing 
well in any fertile well drained soil. -The grafted 
sorts bear their first nuts commonly in the third to 
fifth year. Zone IV.

BLIGHT RESISTANT CHESTNUTS 
Chinese Chestnut (Castanea mollisima). Nuts simi- 
lar to-the dying American, of fine flavor, and sweet. 
It is inured to the Chestnut blight. Lives and bears 
in Zone V. Bears very young. Because of cross

HAZLENUT 
Corylus americana, our native hazlenut, is not the 
largest nut in the family (The European Filbert is 
that). But it is free frem disease and delightful to 
eat—a practical shrub nut for our gardens, which 
the Filbert is not. To 10 feet, Zone IV. Any moist 
soil. “
