Historic Pecan Seedlings

A pecan tree in the park has been discovered near the ferry landing where Sam Houston may have rested or ridden past on horseback 175 years ago. The nuts were picked from the top of the tree at the right stage of development with the help of USDA, Texas Forest Service, Texas A&M Horticulture Department and Bluebonnet Electric.

The nuts were prepared, propagated, and nurtured.
They are now healthy seedlings ready for planting.
Must be picked up from Ellison’s greenhouse in Brenham.
