Sometimes I really hate trees. First, there's the worst &%@#ing tree on the planet, the seriously invasive hackberry. Then there's the black walnut. Forget about the fact that I have to protect my tomatoes and peppers from the juglone with expensive raised beds. Forget about the fact that I just read that even if you cut down all the black walnuts in the vicinity the juglone will continue to infect your soil for years. Just look at this hosta! All my leafy, shade-loving, and black-walnut-toxicity tolerant plants look like they've been through the Blitz because it's a banner year for nuts.
