Nuts – which are actually fruit with edible seeds! – grow in many shapes and sizes, and are cultivated and enjoyed worldwide for their taste and health benefits. Our nursery has American nut trees, as well as hybrids and exotic varieties, ready to be planted and cared for in your own backyard or orchard! Many nut trees are cold hardy, and offer wonderful additions to areas with severe weather!
Benefits of Nuts & Nut Trees
Many marketable improved nuts have been hybridized by research scientists from selections of native American nuts, such as the famous papershell pecan and the Thomas black walnut. There are wild types of natural forest grown hybrids that are available to grow and purchase, such as the American Chestnut and the Hican tree (hickory x pecan).
Ty Ty nursery offers the only 2 kinds of small growing nut trees, the American filbert, (hazelnut), and the rare American native Allegheny chinquapin tree along with several different clones of cold hardy, grafted almond trees for sale. Nuts are delicious to eat, and the health benefits of the kernel nut contents are well known to contain polyunsaturated, fatty acids that are impregnated with anti-oxidants that combat the fearful cancer producing free radicals.
Because of the deep dormancy requirement for shipping, TyTy Nursery usually begins shipping pecan trees the day after Christmas. We usually prefer shipping pecan trees to States located South of Virginia beginning late December. Most shipping to States North of Virginia begin in late February and extends till April, before the leaves appear. We prefer for Northern States' customers to call TyTy Nursery to designate preferred shipping times. Ty Ty's free pruning of pecan trees aids in viability.
