These seedlings originate from an orchard in upstate NY and may contain genetics from Castanea dentata, mollissima, crenata, and/or sativa. They exhibit better blight resistance and produce larger nuts than pure American chestnut. We've been growing them for three years now and have found that some of them do tend to burn back a bit each winter, but carry on quite well the next year. Cautiously listing as hardy to zone 5b - same as our nursery - and suggesting you plant them somewhere sheltered with full sun.
