Dunstan Hybrid Chestnut

 $24.95









Dunstan Hybrid Chestnuts are the best and most widely planted chestnut varieties in America - they combine the excellent nut quality and tree form of the American Chestnut with the blight resistance of Chinese Chestnut.  There has never been an instance of Dunstan Chestnuts dying from the blight, and they have been grown successfully from Florida to Maine, west to Illinois, and along the Pacific coast from the central valley of California to Seattle.  They produce very large, sweet, easy to peel nuts that average 20-30/lb.  Trees begin to bear in 3-5 years.  They are easy to grow and thrive in a variety of locations.  Plant at least 2 trees for pollination.
