Description
High-yielding and easy to grow, the Avalon Pecan Tree was the first release of the Tifton-based UGA pecan breeding program. It was selected for its high levels of scab resistance, even bearing and nut size with 46 nuts per pound. It is an early to mid season producer with very high quality kernel.
Pecan nuts are a natural source of antioxidants, protein, unsaturated fats, and more.
Aside from producing some of the most delicious nuts on earth, pecan trees make very nice shade trees in the edible landscape. Ornamental features include the attractive pinnately compound deep green leaves that turn golden-yellow in fall, and slate-grey color bark that has a lightly fissured texture.
NOTE: As with all of our other plants and trees, all of our nut bearing trees are grown in containers outdoors so they are fully rooted and landscape-ready upon arrival.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 70 to 100 feet tall and 40 to 70 feet wide, the Avalon Pecan Tree is ideal for use as a shade tree and beauty in large landscapes. Because the tree drops a lot of nuts in late summer into fall, we suggest planting at least 35 feet away from a home. A fine addition to edible landscapes, wildlife gardens and native gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 80 feet for space between trees
Growing Preferences
The Avalon Pecan tree is very easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil and full sun to part shade. Prefers moist, organically rich, well-drained soils and is intolerant of some shade. Very drought tolerant when established.
