Walnuts are great. They are long lived. And they are also very aggressive. They put out toxins (Juglone) through
their roots to kill upstart trees that try to grow nearby. Good to give 'em some room.
My favorites here are the Oaks, Maples and Tulip trees (a form of magnolia, actually.)

We probably have enough trees but I always plant some more each spring. Don't wanna run out of trees :)
