Learned the hard way that the leaves of black walnut are also toxic....I mulched a bed of young tomatoes with them (leaves gathered in the fall and kept in bags over winter) one year and it killed/damaged all the tomatoes. Apparently, if you let the leaves sit OUTSIDE exposed to weather (not in bags) during the winter it leaches out the toxin.
