The butternut tree, also known as the white walnut tree, is a deciduous tree that grows in eastern North America. It is recognized by its gray, ridged bark, and long, pointed leaves. Butternut trees produce a deliciously sweet nut that is often used in baking and cooking. Synonyms for the butternut tree include the white walnut, juglans cinerea, and the buartnut tree.

Conservation efforts are underway to preserve this valuable and iconic tree for future generations.
