Abstract
In 1967, black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) seedlings from 15 to 25 provenances were planted at eight locations in the Midwest. In 1973, a similar plantation was established near Yoncalla, Oregon. Results show that, within the species' natural range, provenances can be moved as much as 200 miles northward without the likelihood of cold damage. In general, growth of trees from southern sources exceeds that of trees from northern sources.
