As the title says, but more specifically: can you graft any walnut to a juglans ailantifolia, or j. mandchurica rootstock? Here in Finland those are used in parks and avenues, and bear provenly edible (if somewhat small and hard to crack) nuts. Also nearby of multiple walnuts are, surprise surprise, seedlings (thank you squirrels most kindly!). Now that I KNOW they can propagate themselves, I began wondering if I could use those as a rootstock here, to maximize survibility, and earn some cash also from grafting and selling. Juglans regia can't really survive here, except for really good microclimate, but heartnuts can, and so can butternuts. That makes me believe black walnuts could also.
Usually black walnut is used as a rootstock for regia, I could not hower find ANY information about anything grafted to japanese or mandchurian walnut. But they are all juglans.....so how about it,
should I ask for scionwood and do experiments?
