Shellbark Hickory

bare-root plants

Carya laciniosa 60-80' × 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)
