Pawnee is a cultivar of Carya illinoinensis, Hardy Pecan, and is a large shade tree that bears high quality pecans. 'Pawnee' is a cross of 'Mohawk' and 'Starking Hardy Giant', made in Brownwood, Texas, in 1963, and is very popular throughout the Western and Northern growing regions. It is also growing in popularity in the Southeast. 'Pawnee' is noted for its large nut size and early harvest (usually early September). Once mature (after 8 to 10 years), it is a top producer of medium to large nuts. It has good resistance to aphids and to disease and insects in general, but nut scab can be a problem. 'Pawnee' is a Type I pecan and requires two cultivars for pollinating.
'Pawnee' grows best in full sun. It tolerates clay and sand if well drained, but does best in loam soils with a pH of 6.0-6.5. It has high drought tolerance. Aside from being a food source, Pawnee Pecan's wood is used in furniture production and hardwood flooring. This splendid tree prefers a sunny, sheltered position and a deep moisture-retentive loam. Enjoy the charm and benefits of Pawnee Pecan, a magnificent blend of functionality, history and botanic impressiveness.
