Northern James Pecan Tree [Carya illinoinensis]

Guy standing next to buckets of Northern James pecans


In the Northern states, the Northern James pecan tree will ripen, if this proper cultivar is selected. Native pecans occur in the wild state all along the Mississippi River as far north as Illinois. In fact the early American botanists gave it the name Carya illinoinensis - named after the state where it was first identified, Illinois.

In the past the problem with growing pecans successfully in cold climates was finding a cultivar that matured before the first frosts in the Fall, so as to avoid putting the trees into dormancy too early for high quality kernel filling.

Considered by some to be a "Northern Type" pecan, the Northern James pecan trees planted at South Georgia Experiment Station sites have proven well adapted to humid southern climate conditions as well. The nuts are completely matured by September 1st. in South Georgia; the high quality nuts command a high price on the early wholesale market.



Toasted Northern James pecans are delicious on salads

A refreshing green salad during the Fall covered with blue cheese dressing and toasted pecans is delicious for the evening meal. The early American expedition of Lewis and Clark discovered pecan trees growing in the Northwest, and William Bratram found pecan trees growing at Indian settlements in Mississippi during 1795.
