Amling Pecan Care

The Amling is the highest recommended pecan tree by UGA.edu for home growing and is a cultivar from Alabama. One of its most attractive qualities is the scab resistance and excellent kernel quality. The Amling Pecan Tree features a yield of roughly 62 nuts per pound with anywhere from 50-60% kernel.

The addition of fertilizer when planting trees will benefit the tree greatly when it is young. We prefer a granular fertilizer until the root system is established.

This nut tree is a Type 1 pollinator and requires a Type 2 pecan variety like Elliot Pecan or Kanza Pecan to produce nuts.
