Forkert Pecan trees produce oblong elliptical pecans with a rough surface that is easy to crack. These trees yields about 49 nuts per pound, and though the yield is small, the nuts are quite tasty. Forkerts are a Type-2 pollinator and should be pollinated with Type-One pecan trees. The tree grows to a mature height of 75 to 100 feet. They are hardy in Zones 7-9 and can be planted in full sun or partial shade as long as they are in deep, moist, and well-drained soil.
