Protogynous Type II
Add nuts to your harvest with an Avalon Pecan Tree!
Pecans enhance the flavor of your food while providing important nutrients for your diet. These nuts are a natural source of antioxidants, protein, unsaturated fats, and more.
Avalon is grown for its large, quality nuts and its resistance to scab. This is a new pecan cultivar patented by the University of Georgia and released to growers in 2017. It has a large nut size, with 46 nuts per pound, similar in size to the popular ’Desireable’ pecan. Percent kernel is 53.7%.
Harvest Avalon Pecans early mid-season. Pecan trees thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Since these trees can continue to bear even when over a century old, you’ll enjoy homegrown nuts for generations.
Avalon pecan trees are resilient since they are highly resistant to scab.
