Description
Chinese Chestnut trees are easy to care for lawn trees. They love well-drained, loamy soils, but do fine in drier soils in more arid climates. They don’t like wet feet, though, or being in the shade of other trees, so choose a site that offers them a little room of their own. They are a medium sized tree (40 feet tall) with a good spread and they are hardy down to -20° F. Once established they are drought tolerant. Providing them plenty of water through the growing season, though, promotes good tree growth and assures regular nut production.
