Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

The Elliot Pecan tree is a large, deciduous tree that can reach a height of 70 to 100 feet with a spread of 40 to 75 feet. It has a spreading canopy and dark green, pinnately compound leaves that turn golden yellow in the fall.

One of the notable characteristics of the Elliot Pecan is its excellent nut quality. The nuts are medium to large in size with a thin shell and a rich, buttery flavor. They are highly prized for eating fresh, baking, and cooking.

When it comes to growing conditions, the Elliot Pecan thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It requires regular watering, especially during dry periods, to ensure optimal nut production. Pruning may be necessary to maintain its shape and promote healthy growth.

It's worth noting that pecan trees are typically cross-pollinated, so having another compatible pecan variety nearby is beneficial for optimal nut production. The Elliot Pecan is often used as a pollinator for other pecan varieties due to its early pollen shedding.
