Hican Pecan Tree
Named after a short Texan who discovered this treasure growing in the wild and propagated it commercially. The Hican Pecan tree produces nuts that are quite large and are easy to grow. The Hican matures in the late Fall and the nuts are huge, and the shells are fairly hard much like the Hickory nut, however, the shape is much like the Mahan pecan. The large Hican nut is much easier to shell out than Hickory, and the flavor is a pleasant blend of Pecan and Hickory. The Hican Pecan tree is bi-generic hybrid cross is considered by tasting gourmets to be the most deliciously flavored nut ever offered on the commercial market. Ty Ty offers several sizes of this unique hybrid for sale. One of the most delicious candies in the world is Hican fudge that has an distinct flavor and aroma. The large nuts of the Hican are very popular with commercial growers, because roadside markets can sell them so easily. A pecan tree such as Desirable should be planted with the Hican, so that cross pollination will ensure the production of a large nut crop. TyTy Nursery begins shipping Hican trees in the Fall when they are completely dormant and sometimes a large tree can produce nuts the following season.
