Hardiness: zone 4-9
Delicious and large fruited blight resistant Chinese chestnuts make a great addition to a landscape. They begin producing at a young age and are great for wildlife. Definitely need protection from deer during the first few years, but they quickly outgrow deer browse.
C. Henryi or Chinese Chinquapin make a delicious sweet nut, and grow taller and more straight as a timber form type tree. Rot resistant and beautiful wood for fenceposts, furniture and building.
