Harold Hume takes the pecan from native range to commercial orchard: botany, cultivated varieties, propagation, and the culture that turned a wild river tree into an industry. A horticulturist's complete manual from the crop's founding era. The nut that became the American South's orchard fortune. Plant a long-term investment.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
