Juglans mandshurica
Also called Japanese Walnut
Juglans mandshurica is a deciduous tree in the walnut family, native to East Asia, that grows rapidly and is grown as a hardy ornamental and nut tree in cold temperate regions. It is a large tree, reaching about 25 metres, so it suits open gardens and parks rather than small spaces.
Juglans mandshurica, also known as Manchurian walnut or tigernut, is a species of deciduous tree in the walnut family, Juglandaceae. It is native to East Asia.
The species is native to the Eastern Asiatic Region (China, Russian Far East, North Korea and South Korea).
The kernels of the nuts are edible, but small and difficult to extract. The timber is in use, but less valuable than that of English walnut or black walnut.
