Pterocarya Genus

I have been growing some species in the Pterocarya genus.  The common name is Wingnut.

Pterocarya-Hupehensis-Fast-Growing-Tree

The Hupeh Wingnut(Pterocarya Hupehensis) is a fast growing tree, but lacks some hardiness in plant hardiness zone 5.

Pterocarya-Rhoifolia-Fast-Growth

The Japanese Wingnut(Pterocarya rhoifolia) has been hardier for me.  This selection came from Oikos Tree Crops and is a Korean seed source.
