Nut trees, such as heartnut and pecan are very difficult to graft compared to fruit trees. Grafted heartnuts often start producing in 2-4 years. Early spring pruning is important for young heartnut trees to develop a proper 'central leader' type of tree form. Plant 2 different varieties for pollination or plant 1 seedling and 1 grafted tree.
The ‘Imshu’ name is a blend of ‘improved’ and ‘Schubert’. It originates from a Korean seedling which was brought home to the US by a soldier who served in the Korean War. This variety is now considered the best, hardiest heartnut with bountiful annual crops of medium sized nuts. Mature height 8-12m (25-40')
