Hi everyone,

I have a sunny spot near a black walnut tree and am wondering what juglone-resistant edible(s) I can grow there here in zone 10b? I know that stone fruits, like peaches, plums, and mangoes, might do well. Any ideas?

~Chris

Hi Christopher, here's a start to a list: Juglone Sensitivity List

If people have more to add, I can update it at any time.

I bet you could.  Take a bunch of black walnuts with rotting black husks.  Soak them in water to make some jugloney tea and try it on some weeds.

The permaculture orchard (YouTube) had an episode on this. If true, he stated that the tree had to get stressed to produce the stuff that kills nearby plants. So stuff can grow next to it for years, then something kicks it into survival mode and it releases the chemical.

I thought that was interesting.

Sometimes the answer is nothing

Thanks everyone for the information! I read somewhere that mangoes are juglone tolerant. Is that true? I'm also looking specifically for an evergreen.
