White Walnut (Butternut) (Juglans cinerea)

The White (Butternut) Walnut tree, Juglans cinerea, is a large, deciduous tree valued for its edible nuts, beautiful timber, and wildlife habitat value. It is native to the eastern United States and Canada, and is fast growing in moist, rich soils along streams and in forests. Butternut trees are known for their attractive, light brown bark with deep furrows, and their long, compound leaves that turn a brilliant golden yellow in fall. The White Walnut is a rich North American heritage tree with declining and endangered wild populations.

Butternut nuts are prized for their buttery flavor and can be eaten fresh, roasted, or used in baking. The wood of butternut trees is also highly valued for its fine grain and warm color, making it a popular choice for furniture, cabinetry, and other woodworking projects. In addition to their economic value, butternut trees provide important habitat for a variety of wildlife, including squirrels, raccoons, and songbirds.

Native Range: Eastern United States and Canada
Sun Requirements: Full sun to partial shade
Soil Moisture: Moist, well-drained soils
Mature Height: 50-60 feet
Mature Width: 30-40 feet
Bloom Time: May-June

Pollination:
Butternut trees are monoecious, meaning they have separate male and female flowers on the same tree. In order to produce nuts, butternut trees need to be cross-pollinated with another tree of the same variety. See our Pollination page for more information on cross-pollination varieties and requirements!
