Kanza pecans are a highly prized variety recommended by Texas A&M University for their exceptional quality and disease resistance. These pecans are medium-sized with a thin shell, making them easy to crack and enjoy. The nuts have a rich, buttery flavor and are often used in baking, cooking, or simply enjoyed on their own. Kanza pecan trees are relatively compact, reaching heights of 60 to 80 feet and spreads of 40 to 60 feet, making them suitable for home orchards. They also exhibit a moderate to fast growth rate, typically adding 1 to 2 feet per year. This variety is valued for its consistent yield and excellent nut quality.
