Pecan Orchard
The pecan tree (Carya illinoinensis) is a large deciduous tree native to North America and is renowned for its delicious and nutritious nuts. These trees can reach heights of up to 100 feet (30 meters) and have a broad canopy with pinnately compound leaves, often consisting of 9 to 17 leaflets. Pecan trees produce highly sought-after nuts that are used in a wide range of culinary applications, including pies, pralines, and snacks. They require well-drained soil and a warm, sunny climate to thrive and are a valuable crop in the southern United States, where they are commonly grown in orchards for commercial production.
