SAVE UP TO 22% SOLD OUT 
Green Alder is a cold hardy, native shrub. It is often planted on infertile sites so it can fix nitrogen from the air and improve the soil quality.
The Black Walnut is a slow growing, large, straight-stemmed tree with an open crown. It produces dense, very hard, edible nuts. Note: Although self-pollinating, planting two trees significantly improves nut production. GREEN ALDER QUICK FACTSBLACK WALNUT QUICK FACTS
