No you don't want a Walnut
growing that close to your house!! YIKES
The first year it's
growing they aren't toooo hard to pull out and transplant, but after that, the tap root is quite loooooooong and then when you cut it off and you think you killed it,
it'll re~sprout next year and each year after that!!!
They are magnificant
trees if you have the space for them!! The green sticky balls can be a bit messy too, we have several between all the property lines here in town...
I had about 100 of them a couple of years ago in my compost, I was pregnant and fall time the baby was due, I could mow the lawn and use the sweeper but for taking those piles and putting them into my compost was not in the program, so the piles sat there that winter, in the
spring time, no lie, I had about 100
trees sprouting there, I called a friend of mine that owns a
tree farm and said, "Have I got a deal for you!!!" He took about 70 of them, and I left them, thinking he'd come back for the rest, well, he didn't and the roots are still viable...
