I have a Carpathian/English walnut that grows
beside my garden, in Northern Utah USDA zone 5.
I could send you nuts that have overwintered
on the ground, and would be expected to
germinate in a few weeks,
or I could send you seedlings that germinated
last year. Perhaps as many as a hundred....
Regards,
Joseph

Great offer! I wish I could take you up on it... we are running out of land!?!?  |

I'd be interested in two or three seedlings. How do you want to do it...trade (I've got some black walnut...similar deal, last year or the year before seedlings...I've got older, but they are too hard to ship) or cover postage?

I'd be interested in a some nuts if you have them to spare (and they make it through customs.) Anything I could possibly send you in return?

Thanks Joseph! I planted some nuts in a big planter in the garden. A few days later, I found that a squirrel had been digging and ate at least one. The others are in individual cups, but these I put in this big half barrel. I think they look good:  |

Mine germinated very well in a similar type container protected from the local rodentia. I would say that I got almost 90% germination. Just before going on vacation, I transplanted them into the open garden to get a bit bigger but wouldn't you know it, even though I had chickenwire surrounding the plantings, something got to all except two that were hidden among a couple other plants. At least I got two!
They look great. Thanks.
