How long did it take your tree to start fruiting? We've planted 2 over

The second was a larger pole stage planted in 03, it just sat there for 8
years, with a few leaves but no stem growth. The past couple of years it
is starting to put on some size, but no signs of fruit yet.

A woman, a Dog and a Walnut tree,

Come to think of it, I have a neighbour who beats his dogs. His wife
left him recently, but he does have walnuts. So there you are!
