Common Name: English walnut
Scientific Name: Juglans regia
Category: Champion (big) tree
Comments: This tree has survived almost a century in the small backyard of a house in Old Town Manassas at 9308 Main Street. The third-generation-owner living there now says his grandmother planted the tree as a seedling. It still produces many walnuts which go primarily to the squirrels and blackbirds. The tree is very healthy, having grown to be the largest recorded of its kind in the Commonwealth.
Dendrology Notes: See the Big Tree Database
Best time to photograph: Mid-days in Summer.
