Chestnut tree seedling (Chinese Chestnut) – 8-12″ – grown from locally foraged chestnuts

Description

Chestnut seedling. Medium size – 8-12″. Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima). Locally grown in NE KS from locally foraged and untreated chestnuts.
The nuts drop early to mid season.

I love foraging chestnuts in the Fall. I roast some, plant some as seed. You can also dry them and grind them into flour. They are known as the “bread tree”.

For Fall orders, will ship in late September (Oct for Southern states).
Fall tree orders are containerized trees (in pots). They are priced according to the pot size. 2 gallon equivalent pot size.
They are removed from the pots just prior to shipping. Can also be ordered for local pickup.

Spring orders will ship bare root during dormancy.

Note: You need at least two chestnut trees to ensure that they will produce nuts.

No sales to CA, OR, WA, HI due to importation restrictions.
