Carya

Carya trees, also known as Hickories, are one of the largest growing genus you can get and an unusual addition to add to your tree collection. The wonderful ornamental features provide all year round interest for larger gardens and parkland. This particular genus is part of the walnut family.

The greyish-brown bark is accompanied by masses of ovate, green foliage that turns magnificent shades of yellow in the autumn. As the tree matures, the bark peels off in long, thin strips. Produces small and smooth nuts enclosed in a husk.
