Pecan Trees Best Planted Properly for Shade and Growth
The Tar Heel Gardener urges careful pecan planting in North Carolina noting the tree is hardy and shade giving but often fails when transplanted poorly. Buy Stuart or similar varieties from a reliable nursery, plant in November, use humus rich topsoil, and mix fertilizer with soil. Mulch, prune top growth, and water during dry springs to boost survival and long term shade and nut production.
