This pecan tree grows best in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. The best time of year to plant a tree is in early spring so it has the whole growing season to establish the extensive root system. A slow-release fertilizer applied annually will help with pecan tree growth and pecan nut production. These are not bare-root trees, they are rooted in soil in our nursery containers. To plant your pecan tree, dig a hole the size of the root ball, place the tree + root ball into the planting hole, and backfill with soil. A soil test might be necessary to test soil pH and nutrient levels. Water thoroughly with several gallons of water per week the first year of planting.
