Soak roots briefly before planting. Dig a hole wide enough to spread the roots without crowding, set the tree at the same depth it grew previously, and backfill with native soil. Water thoroughly to settle soil and eliminate air pockets. Apply mulch around the base, keeping it away from the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the first growing season. Once established, Black Walnut is relatively low-maintenance. Choose a permanent location with full sun and room for the mature canopy. Note that Black Walnut produces juglone, which can affect certain nearby plants; plan your landscape accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 live Black Walnut bare root plants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776262799670,"sku":"FOLIA-486","price":99.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6609864360_eb1o.jpg?v=1792468552","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/black-walnut-tree-2-live-bare-root-plants-zones-4-9","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
