Lucky,
Are you saying that pawpaws are not affected by
juglone?
Tom,
That's exactly what I'm saying. On my farm, I can take you to
upland sites, bottom-of-the-hill sites, and creekbank sites where pawpaws
are growing and fruiting - unaffected - right next to, and certainly
within the root zone of large, mature black walnut trees.
