The Shagbark Hickory (Carya ovata) is a long-lived, stately deciduous tree native to North America. Reaching heights of 60-80 feet, this slow-growing species is prized for its unique, peeling bark, which curls away in large strips, providing year-round visual interest and shelter for wildlife.
In spring and summer, it features large, dark green, compound leaves that provide dappled shade. By fall, its foliage turns a warm golden-yellow, adding seasonal beauty. In late summer to early fall, it produces sweet, high-energy nuts, which are a favorite food source for birds, deer, and small mammals. These nuts are also edible for humans, often used in baking and for roasting.
The Shagbark Hickory thrives in well-drained soils and naturalized landscapes, making it ideal for wooded areas, large yards, and restoration projects. With strong disease resistance, deep roots for drought tolerance, and adaptability to various soil conditions, this rugged, low-maintenance tree is a valuable addition to native forests and wildlife habitats.
