Plants of the Juglans Genus at BCA


The following species and varieties are currently (or recently were) in the collections at Boone County Arboretum. This list is certainly not exhaustive -- additional taxa may be available in the trade, or may have been removed from our collection and thus removed from this list. To include taxa that are no longer present, go to this other list.
