Elliotts are some of the largest of the pecan trees as they mature to a height of 70-100 feet tall and 60-70 feet wide so be sure to allot them the necessary space. They’re commonly planted in USDA growing zones 6-9, enjoy a full sun exposure and are drought tolerant as well. Elliotts are moderate growers that are low maintenance even when it comes to opening them, the tan shells are thin making it easy to get to the irresistible golden nuts. Be sure to obtain a cross pollinator such as the Pawnee to ensure proper pollination to enjoy buckets of pecans that are normally ripe by mid to late October.

However, it is best to plant in the early spring or early fall. This will allow your trees to get rooted into the ground before the stress of hot summer weather or cold winter temperatures set in. If you plant in the fall, plant six weeks before the first frost and if you plant in the spring, wait until six weeks after the final frost. If you plant in the summer, make sure that your trees get enough water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelecting a location: \u003c\/strong\u003eWhen choosing a place to plant your pecan trees remember that they grow best in full sunlight. These trees can tolerate partial shade, but will need at least six hours of sunlight a day in order to flourish. Avoid planting your pecan trees in an area that’s prone to flooding or that collects standing water. Pecan trees can grow quite large, so give them enough space to reach their mature size and avoid planting them under power lines or too close to your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e1) Once you have the perfect planting location scouted out dig a hole that’s just as deep as the root ball, and three times as wide.\u003cbr\u003e2) Take a pitch fork or shovel and use it to loosen the soil around the sides of the hole.

Make sure to keep your soil moist, but not over saturated. Check on the soil every few days, when the top soil feels like it’s starting to dry out give your tree a slow, long drink of water by holding a hose at its base and counting to 20 or 30 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization: \u003c\/strong\u003ePecan trees should be fertilized once a year annually in the early spring.

To prevent weeds from growing under your tree spread a 3 to 4 inch thick layer of mulch around the trunk. The mulch will prevent weeds from growing and it will also help the soil retain moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eIt is best to prune your Pecan trees in the early spring, or the early fall. You will need a sharp and sterile pair of loppers or hand pruners. Look at your tree and make a plan before pruning, map out what and where you would like to prune. Remember you can always prune more later and you don’t want to over prune. Remove any dead, diseased, broken, rubbing, or crossing ranches. Make your cuts at a 45 degree angle facing upwards to promote new growth. If a branch is infected cut it back about 6 inches past the infected area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination: \u003c\/strong\u003ePecan trees are partially self-fertile.

During hot, dry periods, add extra water as needed. The best method is to use a slow-trickling hose at the base for about 30 seconds once a week.

Growing in USDA zones 5-9, this is one of the more temperature tolerant trees, tolerating cold down to -10 degrees. The Santa Rosa only requires 300 chill hours so it will produce plums well even in southern climates. This plum tree is self fertile only requiring one tree to produce plums, making it even better for the small home orchard. These sweet purple plums are a treat that are ready to harvest in mid-August making them a delightful summer treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a location: \u003c\/strong\u003eAll plum trees need a full sun exposure location so be sure to pick a bright spot for the trees new home. Well draining, sandy soil is highly recommended with a pH range from 5.5 to 6.5 (which can be easily determined with an inexpensive soil testing kit from your local nursery\/big box store). If possible, plant the tree in a South or West location to cut back on the wind which in turn will assist the tree in setting fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting directions: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1) Prepare your hole by digging it three times as wide as the root ball and just as deeply.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Gently comb the root ball freeing up any compacted roots and place the tree.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Back fill the hole partially, pressing down gently as you go along and water to settle the soil.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Once the hole has been completely filled, add a layer of organic mulch around the tree to help conserve water. Do not let the mulch touch the trunk of the tree as this can promote rot and fungus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eWater your tree generously weekly, twice a week for the first growing season to help promote the growth. Deep watering encourages the roots to extend more deeply into the soil which in turn makes the tree more drought resistant. For young trees, a deep watering with a little over two gallons of water works well whereas adult trees will require around 8 gallons for each watering. If the edges of the tree’s leaves appear to be turning brown or wilting, then the tree is not receiving enough water. The bark at the base of the trunk will change from a light brown to dark brown (or black-ish) color if it’s receiving too much water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eGive your tree a full year to get situated in its new home before attempting to prune. Young plum trees are typically pruned in the late winter to early spring seasons before buds begin to break. This will cut back on the possibility of “silver leaf disease” attacking the tree. More established plum trees will benefit from a midsummer pruning. Pruning isn’t very difficult but a necessity to “cut back” on broken limbs from heavy fruit production. Take off about 20% of the previous year’s growth with cuts at a 45 degree angle. Use a sterilized cutting tool (rubbing alcohol works perfectly) leaving the upright, vigorous branches plenty of space for light to penetrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing: \u003c\/strong\u003eThere are a couple of steps for proper fertilizing of your plum tree to ensure a healthy growing season. Young trees that are three years or younger will benefit from about a half cup of balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer formula applied once in around mid-April and again in early June. More established plum trees will require one annual application of the same balanced formula mid-April. Use 8 ounces for every year of the tree’s age. Fertilizer can burn the roots of younger trees so instead of taking the chance with chemicals, improve your soil’s fertility by amending compost into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum trees that are fertilized properly should grow about 1 foot to 18 inches per year. Symptoms of over fertilizing can include leaf scorching and excessive growth. If you’re noticing these issues then reduce the amount of fertilizer for the following year. Always be sure to water DEEPLY after every fertilizer application and avoid fertilizer getting too close to the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe best tasting plums are left on the tree to fully ripen before picking. Apply gentle pressure with your fingers to determine ripeness. Soft skin on the fruit means it’s ready to be picked. They should easily come off of the tree when ripened using a slight twist. Plums are best kept in the fridge as they unfortunately do not store for very long. If kept in the fridge, they may last a bit longer, closer to around 2-4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Tip: \u003c\/strong\u003eBirds can be attracted to the developing plums.

Once you've selected your location, dig a hole that's approximately a foot and a half deep and equally as wide. Place your Bing Cherry in the hole, tamp down the surrounding soil to remove air pockets, and then water to settle the roots.

Watering: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor the first week, water your tree daily. In the second week, switch to every other day, then reduce to once a week after the first month. Check the soil often during hot weather—your tree may need extra water. In heavy soils, let the soil dry between waterings.

These trees have excellent cold tolerance growing in USDA zones 5-9 but they do require chill hours. In warmer climates ensure that you have a minimum of 250 hours between 32 and 45 degrees. They need full sun and an open environment. Methley plums will reach an overall height of 10-15 feet tall and mature width of 10-20 feet, growing at a rate of 12-18 inches per year. The Methley plum is also a great pollinator for many other types of plum trees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a location: \u003c\/strong\u003eAll plum trees need a full sun exposure location so be sure to pick a bright spot for the trees new home. Well draining, sandy soil is highly recommended with a pH range from 5.5 to 6.5 (which can be easily determined with an inexpensive soil testing kit from your local nursery\/big box store). If possible, plant the tree in a South or West location to cut back on the wind which in turn will assist the tree in setting fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting directions: \u003c\/strong\u003eSome varieties of plums will require a cross pollinator to produce fruit. Be sure to keep your trees within 20-25 feet of one another for the best pollination which will result in the best fruit yield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Prepare your hole by digging it three times as wide as the root ball and just as deeply.\u003cbr\u003e2) Gently comb the root ball freeing up any compacted roots and place the tree.\u003cbr\u003e3) Back fill the hole partially, pressing down gently as you go along and water to settle the soil.\u003cbr\u003e4) Once the hole has been completely filled, add a layer of organic mulch around the tree to help conserve water. Do not let the mulch touch the trunk of the tree as this can promote rot and fungus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eWater your tree generously weekly, twice a week for the first growing season to help promote the growth. Deep waterings encourage the roots to extend more deeply into the soil which in turn makes the tree more drought resistant. For young trees, a deep watering with a little over two gallons of water works well whereas adult trees will require around 8 gallons for each watering. If the edges of the tree’s leaves appear to be turning brown or wilting, then the tree is not receiving enough water. The bark at the base of the trunk will change from a light brown to dark brown (or black-ish) color if it’s receiving too much water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eGive your tree a full year to get situated in its new home before attempting to prune. Young plum trees are typically pruned in the late winter to early spring seasons before buds begin to break. This will cut back on the possibility of “silver leaf disease” attacking the tree. More established plum trees will benefit from a midsummer pruning. Pruning isn’t very difficult but a necessity to “cut back” on broken limbs from heavy fruit production. Take off about 20% of the previous year’s growth with cuts at a 45 degree angle. Use a sterilized cutting tool (rubbing alcohol works perfectly) leaving the upright, vigorous branches plenty of space for light to penetrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing: \u003c\/strong\u003eThere are a couple of steps for proper fertilizing of your plum tree to ensure a healthy growing season. Young trees that are three years or younger will benefit from about a half cup of balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer formula applied once in around mid-April and again in early June. More established plum trees will require one annual application of the same balanced formula mid-April. Use 8 ounces for every year of the tree’s age. Fertilizer can burn the roots of younger trees so instead of taking the chance with chemicals, improve your soil’s fertility by amending compost into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum trees that are fertilized properly should grow about 1 foot to 18 inches per year. Symptoms of over fertilizing can include leaf scorching and excessive growth. If you’re noticing these issues then reduce the amount of fertilizer for the following year. Always be sure to water DEEPLY after every fertilizer application and avoid fertilizer getting too close to the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe best tasting plums are left on the tree to fully ripen before picking. Apply gentle pressure with your fingers to determine ripeness. Soft skin on the fruit means it’s ready to be picked. They should easily come off of the tree when ripened using a slight twist. Plums are best kept in the fridge as they unfortunately do not store for very long. If kept in the fridge, they may last a bit longer, closer to around 2-4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Tip: \u003c\/strong\u003eBirds can be attracted to the developing plums.

Check the soil often during hot weather—your tree may need extra water. In heavy soils, let the soil dry between waterings. Once established (after one to two years), the tree can usually rely on rainfall, needing only a few inches every 10 days. During hot, dry periods, add extra water as needed. The best method is to use a slow-trickling hose at the base for about 30 seconds once a week.

Only reaching 15-20 feet tall and 15 feet wide it is compact enough for a small yard and the fruit is more easily harvested. Growing in zones 5-9, the tree is cold tolerant down to -10 degrees and requires approximately 600 chill hours (depending on the variety of plum), so most varieties will produce, even in warmer climates. This tree provides several months of interest also as it blooms in early spring, produces fruit in mid to late summer, and has excellent fall color. Multi graft trees are self fertile so you only need the one tree for fruit!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a location: \u003c\/strong\u003eAll plum trees need a full sun exposure location so be sure to pick a bright spot for the trees new home. Well draining, sandy soil is highly recommended with a pH range from 5.5 to 6.5 (which can be easily determined with an inexpensive soil testing kit from your local nursery\/big box store). If possible, plant the tree in a South or West location to cut back on the wind which in turn will assist the tree in setting fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting directions: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1) Prepare your hole by digging it three times as wide as the root ball and just as deeply.\u003cbr\u003e2) Gently comb the root ball freeing up any compacted roots and place the tree.\u003cbr\u003e3) Back fill the hole partially, pressing down gently as you go along and water to settle the soil.\u003cbr\u003e4) Once the hole has been completely filled, add a layer of organic mulch around the tree to help conserve water. Do not let the mulch touch the trunk of the tree as this can promote rot and fungus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eWater your tree generously weekly, twice a week for the first growing season to help promote the growth. Deep watering encourages the roots to extend more deeply into the soil which in turn makes the tree more drought resistant. For young trees, a deep watering with a little over two gallons of water works well whereas adult trees will require around 8 gallons for each watering. If the edges of the tree’s leaves appear to be turning brown or wilting, then the tree is not receiving enough water. The bark at the base of the trunk will change from a light brown to dark brown (or black-ish) color if it’s receiving too much water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eGive your tree a full year to get situated in its new home before attempting to prune. Young plum trees are typically pruned in the late winter to early spring seasons before buds begin to break. This will cut back on the possibility of “silver leaf disease” attacking the tree. More established plum trees will benefit from a midsummer pruning. Pruning isn’t very difficult but a necessity to “cut back” on broken limbs from heavy fruit production. Take off about 20% of the previous year’s growth with cuts at a 45 degree angle. Use a sterilized cutting tool (rubbing alcohol works perfectly) leaving the upright, vigorous branches plenty of space for light to penetrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing: \u003c\/strong\u003eThere are a couple of steps for proper fertilizing of your plum tree to ensure a healthy growing season. Young trees that are three years or younger will benefit from about a half cup of balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer formula applied once in around mid-April and again in early June. More established plum trees will require one annual application of the same balanced formula mid-April. Use 8 ounces for every year of the tree’s age. Fertilizer can burn the roots of younger trees so instead of taking the chance with chemicals, improve your soil’s fertility by amending compost into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum trees that are fertilized properly should grow about 1 foot to 18 inches per year. Symptoms of over fertilizing can include leaf scorching and excessive growth. If you’re noticing these issues then reduce the amount of fertilizer for the following year. Always be sure to water DEEPLY after every fertilizer application and avoid fertilizer getting too close to the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe best tasting plums are left on the tree to fully ripen before picking. Apply gentle pressure with your fingers to determine ripeness. Soft skin on the fruit means it’s ready to be picked. They should easily come off of the tree when ripened using a slight twist. Plums are best kept in the fridge as they unfortunately do not store for very long. If kept in the fridge, they may last a bit longer, closer to around 2-4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Tip: \u003c\/strong\u003eBirds can be attracted to the developing plums.
