Pecan Tree Pollination:
Pecan trees bloom and shed pollen at separate times, making pecan tree pollination different from fruit trees.
TYPE 1: Pecan trees shed pollen first and their pistillate flowers are receptive of pollen later in the season.
These varieties are referred to as Protandrous, having a “Type I” flowering habit.
TYPE 2: Pecan trees that have pistillate flowers that are receptive to pollen first and then their catkins shed pollen later in the season.
These trees are referred to as Protogynous, having a “Type II” flowering habit.
