After all, delicious pecans are the most widely produced nut in America. Our farmers produce roughly 80% of the world's annual consumption, according to the U.S. Pecan Growers Council. 

Pecans start producing at 6 to 10 years of age, and they continue producing for many decades. A mature tree has the capability of producing 70 to 150 pounds of nuts each year, depending on the cultivar.

Showy, large Pecans thrive in USDA Hardiness Zones 6 through 9. These trees make wonderful shade trees, but the real value comes from the delicious nuts.

How long do Pecan trees live? These hard-working trees can often live for 300 years or more. Their deep taproot makes the Pecan quite a sturdy tree.

Buy Pecan Trees in Pairs: You Need Both Types of Flowering Trees

Pecan Tree Infographic

Successfully growing Pecan trees requires both male pollen and female flowers. You need more than one tree to ensure cross-pollination and a great harvest.

Although Pecan trees have both male and female flowers on the same tree, they aren't self-pollinating. That means you want to buy Pecan trees in pairs for a productive orchard.

You'll need a Type 1 and a Type 2 for fruitful trees that cross-pollinate. Plant pollinating Pecan trees no more than 80 feet apart on center, measuring from the center of one tree to the center of the next.

Type 1 Pecan trees are protandrous and release male pollen before the female flowers are ready to receive. Type 2 Pecan trees are protogynous, and they release male pollen after the female flowers are receptive.

Look on every product page for the right pollination partner. Growing Pecan trees means adding at least two trees to your landscape.

Choosing the Best Pecan Varieties for Your Needs

Different types of Pecan trees have been cultivated to suit geographies and climates. You've certainly heard of the Texas Pecan tree, as they happen to be the state tree.

In addition, each of these named cultivars produce different kinds of pecans for eating fresh, cooking and baking, and shipping.

The best Pecan variety for eating is a little bit subjective. Type 2 Elliot Pecan do win taste tests for their rich flavor and reliable harvest of delicious and uniform nuts.

Northern growers should plant Hardy Pecan, a tough tree that works even into Zone 5a. That variety is the best choice for northerners to grow homegrown pecan nuts.

Most Pecan tree varieties grow quite large. True dwarf pecan trees don't exist, at least not yet, but Type 1 Pawnee Pecan is compact for a better fit in smaller lots.

Type 2 Choctaw Pecan tree grows attractive nuts with a thin shell. It makes a good pollinator for Pawnee Pecan trees.

Can I Grow a New Pecan Tree From a Nut?

Sure, you can try to grow new Pecan trees from nuts, but they will be a brand new type of tree. Each nut is the product of pollination from two parents, so there may be some surprises in store for you.

Most people think waiting 10 years to be surprised isn't the best route to take. We offer dependable cloned varieties of Pecan trees for sale that deliver the results you expect.

Our expert growers take a scion from small Pecan tree cultivars, and graft them to rootstock. This way, you're sure to get consistent performance and the desired qualities you are after.
