Shellbark Hickory
Carya laciniosa, 1- and 2-yr-old bareroot seedlings.
Grown from the best genetics in terms of crackability, size, flavor, productivity, etc. Most of my seedlings are grown from open-pollinated nuts from all-grafted cultivar orchards, though a few come from nuts of outstanding wild trees.
