Buy Hybrid Chestnut Trees for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Hybrid Chestnuts are nut trees with ancestry from more than one chestnut species.

Plant Details:

• Plant Type: Deciduous nut, shade, and wildlife tree
• Botanical Name: Castanea hybrid
• Parentage: Varies by tree; contact us for parentage information when available
• Mature Size: Approximately 30–60 feet tall and 30–50 feet wide, depending on the hybrid
• Sun: Full sun
• USDA Zones: Approximately 4–9, depending on parentage
• Bloom/Harvest: Flowers in late spring to early summer; edible nuts generally fall in autumn
• Nuts: Chestnuts enclosed in sharp, spiny burs; nut size and quality vary by tree
• Pollination: Plant at least two genetically different, compatible chestnut trees with overlapping bloom
• Spacing: Approximately 30–40 feet apart for an orchard or large landscape planting
• Soil/Water: Slightly acidic, well-drained soil; water regularly while young and avoid waterlogged ground
• Landscape Uses: Nut groves, home orchards, shade trees, farms, and wildlife plantings

Best Pollinator Partners:

• Another genetically different Hybrid Chestnut: A good choice when the two trees flower at the same time.
• A Chinese Chestnut seedling: A possible partner when its bloom overlaps with the Hybrid Chestnut.
• A Dunstan Chestnut seedling: Another possible partner with overlapping bloom.

For the simplest planting plan, choose two or three genetically different chestnut seedlings and give them room to mature. Two grafted trees of the same named variety are genetically identical and should not be relied upon to pollinate each other. Please contact us about the available trees so we can help select a suitable pair. advancednurserygrowers.com

North Florida Growing Note: Hybrid Chestnut performance in the Florida Panhandle depends on the particular tree’s parentage. Plant in full sun on a well-drained site where water does not collect around the roots. Place trees away from sidewalks and play areas because fallen chestnut burs are extremely sharp. advancednurserygrowers.com
