Hickory Catalog
The hickory has a slow beginning, producing a long tap root first. After it is established, it grows quickly. It is selected for cracking ease and nut size. Its rich buttery flavour is king. Of the hicans, ‘Burton’ & ‘Dooley’ hican, a seedling of ‘Burton’ are the best we have tried in Niagara. Leafhoppers are a problem in first 2 years, causing the leaves to curl and distort. Spray late June and again in July for best survival. Plant in zones 5-7. Grafts need winter protection for 2-3 years.
To promote strong rooting, all grafted hickories and hicans are pot grown for two or more years, resulting in 5-7 year old trees. They are bare rooted for shipping.
