Shagbark hickory and shellbark hickory trees produce excellent nuts to eat, and many gardeners consider that the hickory and pecan are the finest nuts to taste and grow. The hickories prefer to grow in wet locations and usually don't bear nuts early, but are dependable yearly nut producers once bearing starts. The hickory tree and the pecan tree can hybridize and form a thinner shell called a 'Hican,' that is extremely cold hardy with a flavor that combines the spicy hickory with the oily pecan.
