- All of our trees are Elliot rootstock which is chosen for its strong root system.
- Most pecan trees will be 5-7 years old before they produce pecans. Production depends on the variety of tree, soil, water application, spray program and weather. Earliest production may be 4 years with the right conditions and care.
