Gallon potted plant from Pecan Stuart. I have these shade trees growing all over my yard as we have heavily fertilized these trees for the past three years. It produces large nuts and the most preferred of all the pecan species. Late to begin growth in spring, making the cultivar hardy in North GA, AR, and OK. There are more acres of Stuart trees than any other cultivar. Recommended for planting in AL, AR, FL, GA, MS, NC, OK, SC and TN. Hardy in zones 6 to 9. This 60 foot tree will produce the highly sought after nuts after about 4 years.
