My friend just gave me one last night, It's just a baby and it's so cute I named it Wally, anyways does anyone know how to take care of one? I'll try to post a pic of it later.

I don't know how to take care of one, but I do know that it takes around ten years before you'll get some nuts. Most nut trees take around that long to produce nuts.

In comparison, most fruit trees will take anywhere from 2 (dwarf size) to 5 years before they produce fruit.

You could always drive around until you see one, locate the owner, and hold him hostage with a zucchini until he tells you how to take care of one!

In all seriousness, next time you're walking and notice a healthy one, why not ask? Im sure if they're a proud gardener they wont mind helping out :3

The best thing about plants is that you can always plant more and always start over. [:
