SECTION MAP: Buy with confidence at Wolfe Nursery. In cooperation with State and Govern- 
ment Experiment Stations, we have prepared this section Map in order that you may choose 
correctly the varieties to plant. We do not want to sell any plant that is not adapted and 
request that you study this map and pick varieties suited to your locality. Your success is our 
SUCCESS. 
SIZE OF PECAN TREE TO PLANT: The trend each year is to plant larger trees. The 4-5, 5-6, 6-7 
and 7-9 foot are all good commercial sizes for planting. For yards or where trees can be well 
cared for, we suggest 6 to 9 foot trees for quicker shade and heavier production. 
POLLINATION OF PECANS: If you have a few native pecans among your budded pecans they 
will usually take care of your pollination problem. Where all Paper-shell pecans are used some 
late pollen shedders and some early pollen shedders should be used. EARLY POLLEN SHED- 
DERS: Western Schley, Success, Halbert, San Saba Improved and Squirrels’ Delight. LATE 
POLLEN SHEDDERS: Burkett, Schley, Delmas, Stuart, and Commonwealth. One tree will furnish 
enough pollen for |0 trees. 
SIZE OF HOLE FOR PECANS: In .ideal pecan soils, use a post-hole digger. The hole should be 
dug to a depth of about three feet deep with ample space for tap-root and lateral roots. In 
hard soils, the hole should be larger and plenty of good loose soil put around the roots of 
the trees. Feeder roots need soft soils in which to take hold. Water the soil around the roots 
until it settles. Don't water oftener than every I|0 days.
