Disease-Resistant Chestnuts You Can Grow in Your Backyard!
Bring back the timeless American tradition of growing chestnuts by planting your very own Chinese Chestnut Tree:
-
Disease resistant: Though blight may be a problem with American chestnuts, the Chinese Chestnut Tree is resistant and strong.
-
Easy to grow: Chestnuts do very well growing on their own, so there’s no need to worry about maintenance.
-
Delicious, healthy nuts: Low-fat chestnuts are great raw, roasted, baked or as an ingredient in your favorite dish.
Imagine being gathered around your family during the holidays, roasting chestnuts over an open fire - chestnuts that are homegrown. Though they’re great in a Thanksgiving stuffing, chestnuts make an excellent and healthy addition to meals and snacks year-round. And because Chinese chestnuts are easy to store, you’ll be able to enjoy your abundant harvest season to season.
Even better? The Chinese Chestnut Tree is eye-catching and stands on its own. Fragrant, creamy white and yellow-hued blooms cover the tree for a brief time in late spring. Subtle but radiant fall leaves follow in autumn to accompany the sweet chestnuts. And in the summertime, you’ll love the dense shade of the 40-60-foot wide canopy that creates a stunning, sun-dappled retreat right at home.
There’s so much to love about the Chinese Chestnut Tree. Since it produces chestnuts in approximately three years, you’ll be enjoying all those benefits and more in no time. Chinese Chestnut Trees are growing in popularity, and though you'll need two trees to grow a bountiful harvest, they're a must-have for the homegrower.

hopeful
I have 4 chestnut trees which I planted properly and maintained with water, but I think the time spent in the cardboard box and very limited dirt around the root ball stressed the tress. The leaves are limp/somewhat brown, and only a few buds growing on some limbs. I admit to leaving them in the box for 4 days before planting them. I think enough of each tree will live that I am hopeful I will not need to replace them.
Great product
I ordered 4-5 feet and they were bigger than that. One of them already sprouted , came fast and hopefully will have fruit in a year.
Chinese Chestnut Trees purchased during a BOGO Sale
My Chinese Chestnut Trees arrived in late fall in excellent condition. The trees were slightly larger than 6 feet long and had only a few branches at the lower 1/3 of the trunk, budding nicely for spring growth. I bought two during the BOGO sale for pollination requirements. I transplanted them into 30-gallon Vivosun cloth containers, where they will grow for the next two years, and then moved to a permanent location. I am happy with this purchase as Fast Growing Trees offers excellent service and quick shipping. I prefer to start well-rooted trees in the dirt rather than bare roots. They transition 2-3 times faster from pots.
Chinese Chestnut Tree
The trees were packaged well and delivered quickly. Overall, I am pleased with the quality of your product and service. Just anxious to see if they begin to sprout this spring.
