Walnut Tree Care

Walnut trees in Denver include many black walnut which are hampered by 1000 canker, among other conditions.

A growing concern as it sweeps from West to East across the US, 1000 canker is distinguished by little sores on the branches which multiply across the branches and trunk until the tree’s ability to convert water to energy is stopped. This causes the tree to go into decline.

No labeled treatment exists but you can help keep a tree healthy through spring fertilization and keeping a lookout for signs in your neighborhood.

Walnut Tree Removal

Walnut’s are usually easier to remove than cottonwoods, because they are smaller and easier to access in a well designed landscape.

If your black walnut becomes ill from disease, it must be removed before other walnuts are infected.

Planting a black walnut in 2011 may not be a good idea as the tree is likely to be diseased by the end of the decade.
