Carya laciniosa60-80' × 40-60'. Tall with a distinctly narrow crown resembles shagbark hickory but with somewhat less shaggy bark though it also exfoliates in strips when mature. Fruit husks are a bit thicker and shells are larger than its cousin’s but equally valued by humans and wildlife. This is a tree of the bottomlands and floodplains, preferring rich damp soils and tolerating seasonal flooding. Dark green odd-pinnate compound leaves with 4-8" leaflets are yellow or brown in fall.
Give it lots of space to grow! Self-pollinating but planting multiples benefits crop yields. Native from NY south and west to the Mississippi River plains. Z5. NEW! (1-3' bare-root trees)
Items from our perennial plants warehouse ordered
on or before March 7 will ship around March 31
through late April, starting with warmer areas and finishing in
