Carya cordiformis
Also known as Bitternut Hickory, this is one of our amazing native hickory trees. Growing faster than Shagbark or Shellbark Hickory, it can be an excellent choice for riparian buffer zones.

The thin-shelled nature of the nuts make it a favorite among wildlife. It is also possible to process the nuts for a high quality, highly nutritious oil.
