Hi,
It's well-understood that black walnut exceeds, respectively, English (/Carpathian) walnut and hickory in its juglone toxicity to juglone-sensative plants (i.e. bluberry, pears, etc.). However, "to a lesser extent" means very little to me.
Will a juglone-sensitive plant be at all negatively impacted by the effects of being planted near an English walnut - or, being yet lower in juglone concentration, a hickory tree? My suspicion is: to an extent, yes w/English walnut (J. regia), to much less an extent w/hickory (except maybe to a large extent w/pecan hickory).
Any anecdotal evidences here?
Thanks,
Steve
