Product Details and Specifications

The Oconee Pecan Tree is a low-maintenance choice with moderate resistance to scab and disease, making it suitable for most environments. It is also resistant to pecan phylloxera disease, ensuring long-term health and productivity. This variety was developed through a cross-selection between Schley and Barton and was released in 1989. As a Type 1 pollinator, it requires a companion Type 2 tree, such as the Elliot Pecan or Kanza Pecan, to ensure successful pollination and a large crop of nuts each year. The Oconee Pecan Tree can grow up to 70-100 feet tall and has a 70-foot branch spread, making it a stately and versatile addition to any landscape.

• Low maintenance and disease-resistant
• Companion pollination required
• Fast growth rate

Practical Uses and Benefits

The Oconee Pecan Tree is an ideal choice for those seeking a shade tree with a delicious payoff. It thrives in USDA growing zones 6-9 and requires full sun to partial shade in moist, well-drained soil. Watering extensively during the first year helps establish a strong root system, and a slow-release fertilizer at the top of the root ball stimulates growth. The Oconee Pecan Tree is not a bare-root tree but is shipped in a container rooted in soil, ensuring a healthy start. This tree is perfect for gardeners, homeowners, and anyone looking to enjoy the taste of homegrown pecans.
