WALNUT
(Juglans)
The Common Walnut Juglans regia is native to a region stretching from south-east Europe to China and has been grown in Britain since Roman times. It is now common in gardens and parks especially in the South of England. The timber is highly valued for fine furniture and the nut has been used in cookery for more than 2000 years. Most walnut imports to the UK come from California, India and China.
