I have a black walnut tree in my back yard, it's 1/2 over my lot 1/2 over the lady next door. The lady next door is really into gardening, and she told me the Black Walnut tree will kill almost anything you plant under it.
Is this true?
She said the Walnut tree was the reason her peach tree was not doing so well, (she moved it this year and it is doing better)
I have Hostas under the tree that have been doing just fine. But I'm afraid to put anything else under it.
p.s. this is my 3rd summer at this house. The first summer the tree produced nuts, we planted some hostas under it, and the lady next door planted a bunch of stuff near or just out of reach of the tree, and the next summer the tree produced no nuts. The lady next door thinks it's because we put the tree into shock from digging around it. And such. Could that be true?
