Tree of the week! for week ending Sunday
Chinese Chestnut (Castanea Mollissima)
 While technically not a native, the Chinese chestnut is grown as a replacement for the American chestnut that was killed throughout North America in the early 20th century by a blight disease. As its name implies, it is native to China, and widely adapted in the US/Canada. Nuts are of outstanding quality. Attractive to wildlife. These chestnuts can be roasted over an open fire! Tree needs full sun and well-drained soil. Very drought tolerant once established. Nuts ripen in Sept-Oct. Trees should begin producing at 4-5 years after planting. Note: Two trees must be planted for pollination.
