How tall do pecan trees get?


Pecan trees typically grow between 70 and 100 feet tall, with mature canopies spreading approximately 40–80 feet wide. Their impressive size makes them excellent shade trees, but they require plenty of room to grow and develop healthy root systems.

Growth rates and mature heights vary depending on the variety, soil conditions, sunlight, and climate. Pecan trees thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, and they should generally be spaced at least 40 feet apart in home landscapes.
