Pecans 

Pleas Hican Chinese Chestnut 

Hicans are a natural hybrid between the hickories and northern varieties 
of pecans. The trees give the appearance of a smooth-barked hickory and 
are excellent for roadside or lawn. Adaptable to planting on a wide 
range of soils. 
MARQUARDT HICAN. Tree grows rapidly. Variety from Burlington, 
Iowa. This is a hardy variety, but for crop production requires the same 
number of hot summer days as pecans do to mature a crop. (See page 9 in 
our current catalogue. ) 
PLEAS HICAN. This is a very thin-shelled nut. Tree graceful with dark 
green foliage. 
Hickory trees can be successfully planted on a wide range of soils. They 
require a fertile soil and should not be planted on soils of low fertility 
unless they can be built up with chemical and organic fertilizer materials. 
FAIRBANKS HICKORY. A cross between the shagbark and bitternut. 
This is a fast-growing, early-bearing hybrid. 
STANLEY SHELLBARK. A big-bottom shellbark or king nut. 
NORTHERN PECANS. The varieties we are growing, Indiana, Busseron, 
Posey and Greenriver, can be grown under about the same conditions and 
climatic requirements. Pecan trees are hardy much farther north than 
nut crops may be expected to mature. The varieties listed as ‘‘northern’’ 
do extend the pecan planting belt farther north than southern varieties 
can be expected to mature crops.
