Hickory tree 6-12 inches

Hickories are on their way north. Slow to get established and start producing nuts (2-4 years of taproot growth and 15-20 years for nut production), hickories are beautiful landscape or forest trees with broad lush foliage and exfoliating bark. The trees produce flavorful nuts and the sap was reportedly used for making sugar. The wood is highly valued for its strength and durability and also produces the highest BTU's per cord.
