The pinnately compound leaves are borne alternately, and bear up to fifteen oval-lanceolate finely serrate leaflets. The immature fruits are pickled whole for human consumption. The mature nuts are also eaten. Like most walnuts, "J. australis" produces juglone, an allelopathic substance which decreases competition from other plants growing nearby.
