Chinese Chestnut Catalog
The native stands of American chestnuts have been wiped out by the chestnut blight, a fungus disease. The Chinese chestnut and its hybrids are largely blight resistant and are being planted to fill the void. The American hybrids have the greater hardiness and timber form of the native. Earl Douglass of New York produced some of the best American hybrids for blight resistance, tree form & nut quality. Zones 5-7.
We have bred and tested numerous Chinese chestnuts over a period of more than 35 years. We propagate only from the most blight resistant and hardy sources. Sorry, no chestnut trees to BC and to the USA due to restrictions.
PLEASE NOTE THAT AT LEAST TWO SEEDLINGS OR TWO DIFFERENT CULTIVARS ARE NEEDED TO PRODUCE NUTS.
