Product Details

Desirable Pecan

Carya illinoinensis 'Desirable'

Desirable Pecan is a classic ornamental and productive tree valued for its strong structure, dense foliage, and abundant nut production. Its glossy green leaves create a full, rounded canopy that provides ample shade, while the upright growth habit adds visual balance to large landscapes or yards. This deciduous tree reaches 70 to 90 feet tall and 40 to 60 feet wide, making it an impressive specimen for expansive spaces. In addition to its ornamental appeal, Desirable Pecan produces high-quality, flavorful nuts each fall, adding both aesthetic and practical value to your property. The Desirable Pecan is a Type 1 pollinator, meaning its male flowers (catkins) shed pollen before its female flowers are receptive. To produce nuts, Desirable Pecans require a compatible Type 2 variety.
