The Curtis pecan tree cultivar was discovered in 1886 growing near Orange Park, FL. by J.B. Curtis. It is fascinating that the Curtis Pecan tree is such an outstanding, dependable cultivar that it has produced such fine quality kernels so far South in Florida, near Orlando, where very little dormancy occurs.


The Curtis pecan is so resistant to disease that the rootstock of all TyTy Nursery pecan trees is grafted on Curtis Seedlings that were grown by planting nuts from the Curtis cultivar.

Whether you choose to eat fresh kernels from the Curtis shelled pecans, or whether you choose to use them in salads and desserts, this pecan is special for Florida growers.





The Curtis nut has been tested in Texas and Southeastern Experiment Stations and was released by the USDA because of its disease resistance and its phenomenal early production phase of orchards in the Southeast.




It is easy to crack the papershell free from the Curtis pecan nut, and usually the straw colored kernels shell out in perfect halves.




Many orchards in Northern Florida can expect to produce an increase in production of 10 pounds per tree for each year the tree ages. If you buy an 8 foot pecan tree, it is not unusual to harvest a few nuts the first year.




The nuts have a very thin shell, and the shell-out, kernel percentage is a startling 57%. We don't know of any other commercial cultivar, that produces a shell-out product efficiency like Curtis.

Arbequina


Try planting nursery grown, grafted olive trees that can bear fresh olives the first year for table eating quality. In Northern states the olive trees can be containerized and grown near an entrance or planted in pots near the pool for that tropical flair, and in Winter just move your olive trees indoors and eat tasty olives all Winter. The olive oil produced from pressing Arbequina olives is of a high quality and a fruity musky flavor but rather unstable with a short shelf life in some cases.
