Time to Yield

HOW SOON WILL THEY YIELD NUTS?

This will vary widely with species, soil, climate and care. For the most part, your nut trees will appear to just sit there and do nothing for several years while they are busy putting down roots. You can expect nuts as early as:

  • 3 to 5 years for Hazelnuts and Chestnuts
  • 5 to 10 years for Black Walnut, Oak, Butternut and Buartnut
  • 10+ years for Korean Stone Pine
