Description
This product cannot be shipped to California.
The Colossal Chestnut Tree features a large nut with 11 to 15 nuts per pound, that has an easy peel pellicle and a very good nut flavor. The Colossal Chestnut tree itself is large, and will spread out, similar to it's parent tree in Nevada City, California, which is 70 feet tall. It needs a pollinizer, such as the Nevada Chestnut. Colossal Chestnut is cold hardy, down to -20 degrees Fahrenheit, and the nuts are ready to harvest in early to mid September. Order top-quality hybrid chestnut trees from Willis Orchards!
