waterbutts I cannot see any brown mushrooms , going to check the soil when it is cooler this evening . But for now, this is some of its history.
It is about 50 years old ( it was inherited ) and about 35 foot .
The only thing I can think of it could have been hit with : is a lawn mower but even that I am not sure . We have been here for 15 yrs . and it looked okay then . But each year it has always produced nuts in 3 stages / forms . we get the june drop ,which is normal . then around september they start falling . some walnuts that have not produced or formed properly . (1) It is a jelly like stuff inside (2) or a black dry skin over the nut itself . The nuts with the black skin is white nut inside and eatable . (3) Then we get the very enjoyable walnut , crisp white nut with a moist thin pealable skin . And these are lovely .
