Really really want to grow my own walnuts - anyone have one and do they actually fruit in this country? Any information would be greatfully received.

Yes they do: we ate out t'other evening, there was a walnut tree outside, and the proprietor said every autumn people came round thumping the tree with sticks to get the nuts downAll gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb. -
Yes they grow in this country but flower early so if you get a late frost....Comment

OOOH that hurts just to think about it.
Seriously, One of my customers planted a walnut tree more than 5 years ago and it has made little progress. Probably just to cold for too long up here. I'm sure walnuts bleed out if the stem/trunk is damaged too so that is something to consider if deer or rabbits are present.Comment
