The Pecan Tree is a magnificent deciduous tree that offers both beauty and utility to any landscape. With its towering height of up to 70 feet and a wide canopy, it provides ample shade and stunning seasonal color, especially in fall when its leaves turn vibrant yellow. This tree produces delicious nuts with a rich, buttery flavor, perfect for baking or snacking. In the 19th century, the pecan became a symbol of Southern agriculture and cuisine, with its cultivation spreading across the United States, particularly in Texas and Georgia. The Pecan Tree is the only native nut tree to the United States that is cultivated commercially. It’s incredibly adaptable to a range of soil types and climates, thriving with minimal care once established. Known for its drought tolerance, it’s a low-maintenance tree that rewards with years of pecan harvests. Pecan trees can live for over 100 years, and some have been known to produce nuts for up to 300 years.

Planting Instructions:

Soil Preparation:

Choose a clear, sunny location that is not in the shade of other trees and receives at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Trees establish roots better in sandy, well-drained soils rather than heavy, poorly drained soil. Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade or till the soil 6-8 inches deep. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. If the soil is heavy or clay-like, mix in some sand or compost to improve drainage. Optionally, either form rows of soil beds or hills 4-6 inches high and at least 40 feet apart. This formation of ridges will help with drainage, ensure good airflow, and make harvesting or maintenance easier.

Planting:

Starting Indoors: Seeds require cold, moist stratification to break dormancy. To stratify, roll seeds in a damp paper towel and place in a resealable bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator to keep seeds at 35F-40F for 60-90 days, mimicking winter conditions. After the stratification period, seeds should be ready to germinate. To germinate seeds, place the bags in a warm 70F-90F area. After 10 days, plant the seeds in small pots with moist potting soil and in a warm, sunny location that is at least 65F, about 1 month after the last expected frost in spring. Keep the soil moist, allowing the top inch of soil to dry in between waterings.

Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves and are at least 6 inches in height, harden off seedlings then transplant outdoors in the spring, in a sunny location when temperatures are consistently above 60F. To transplant seedlings, prepare a transplant hole outdoors in a sunny, permanent location. Remove the plants carefully from the pots or flats and set them in the transplant holes, burying some of the stem in the ground. Pack the soil loosely around the plant and leave a slightly sunken area around each plant to hold water. Water the plants after transplanting.

Directly Sowing: If directly sowing outdoors, plant seeds in late summer to naturally cold-stratify seeds. To plant, make holes 1 inch deep and spaced 40-60 feet apart down the rows of raised beds. Plant 1 seed per hole, then cover thinly with soil. Seedbeds can be covered with plastic film to promote germination. Water after planting.



Planting Depth: 1 inch
Within-Row Spacing: 40-60 feet
Between-Row Spacing: 60 feet


Care During the Season:

Pecan trees are best watered regularly, especially during dry periods, to promote healthy growth and nut production, but avoid overwatering, as pecan trees prefer well-draining soil. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to support strong growth and fruiting. Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring, removing any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain good airflow and shape. Mulching around the base of the tree helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the roots from extreme temperatures. Regular monitoring for any signs of nutrient deficiencies or stress can also help keep the tree healthy throughout the growing season.

Harvesting:

Wait until the outer husks of the Pecan nuts begin to split and fall off the tree, typically in late fall. The nuts will drop naturally when they’re ripe, or you can gently shake the branches to encourage them to fall. After the nuts have fallen, collect them from the ground, ensuring they are fully mature, as immature nuts may not have developed properly. Once harvested, remove the outer husks and allow the pecans to dry in a cool, well-ventilated area for several days. After drying, store the pecans in a cool, dry place or refrigerate them to maintain their freshness.

Great for crazy pups!
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Ocean Blue
Tough and fun! This is a great toy to keep in the yard for play. I have a heavy chewer. He can get a hold of it and carry it around but it doesn't pop. It is soft enough but also strong. My dog loves to herd it around. He loves it!

Durable, bouncy fetch toy that dogs usually love
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Ocean Blue
Bouncing Dog Toy is generally very well received, especially for dogs that enjoy fetch and active play. It is made from a flexible, puncture resistant material that can handle a lot of biting and chewing without immediately popping or losing shape. Many owners like that it has a good bounce and is easy for dogs to grip, even when wet or slobbery. It is also lightweight enough for kicking, tossing, or rolling, which makes it great for interactive play sessions. A big highlight is that it floats, so it works well for water play as well as backyard or park fetch. The 8 inch size is especially good for medium to large dogs because it is big enough to avoid accidental swallowing but still easy for them to carry and chase. Most complaints are pretty typical for any dog toy of this type, meaning very strong chewers can eventually damage it, and some dogs may puncture it over time, but even then it often keeps its shape and continues to be usable

Soccer ball just for dogs
Size: 6 Inch Diameter, Color: Ocean Blue
I could say "soccer", and our shoodle would wag her tail ready to play soccer with a tennis ball so I tried out this real soccer ball with her. Mostly, she just wants to wait for me to kick it, playing defense, so she can chase it like the tennis ball. After that she wants to usually bite it or roll over on top of it as a way to secure the ball, but sometimes she will have fun pushing it around with her nose or paws. She still prefers the frisbee for play time outside since the frisbee is good for catching and for playing tug-o-war, but this is a good alternative that always gets her wagging with excitement. I wanted to get a regular 6" soccer ball for our shoodle, but this was a good choice for dogs for the durability and safety of the rubber material. The hexagons give the dog some grip to pick it up. The rubber is soft enough to grip and expel air when they do figure out how to grip it. The ball is designed to suck back in air when the dog releases the ball. - Durable rubber material ideal for dogs - Dog can squeeze out air to grip it - Ball fills back up with air after air is squeezed out - Can make more noise than a leather soccer ball - Noise is still tolerable when used indoors

Good for aggressive cheers. Reinflates everytime even when punctured
Size: 6 Inch Diameter, Color: Apple Green
I have an aggressive cheer that will tear apart anything. I bought this a few months ago and it is covered in puncture holes but it reinflates everytime. Best dog toy ever she loves it. I would buy a dozen of these. The medium size is perfect for my mini bull terrier. Big enough to not get completely in her mouth but small enough that she can still grip it to carry it around

Dog approved for fun, human approved for durability for the price.
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Orange
This has been my dogs favorite outdoor toy for years . I love these because they are durable and won't deflate when bitten or when carried around in their mouth.... no matter how many holes the dogs put in them. We leave these outside year round even in Minnesota winters. It is strong enough to hold up yet soft enough to be safe on their teeth. Now I do want to say although it is really durable it is not indescribable. IF you have a heavy chewer or a dog that loves to destroy toys, they would need supervision with this I think. My dogs don't try to chew this up but they do wear out over time. We replace it every 2 to 3 years on average. Definitely dog approved and recommended in my home, and human approved for cost and durability. I hope your dogs love it as much as mine do.
