Buy Chinese Chestnut Trees Online Wholesale-  Castanea Mollissima

The Chinese Chestnut Tree is a mid-sized type that thrives in full or partial sun. Many people grow it for its nuts. It takes its name from its native country, China. Although an Asian native species, it is hardy and well-adapted to grow in the United States. It grows in most U.S.D.A. growing zones, is deer-resistant and drought-resistant, and is not fussy about soil types.

These Trees Thrive In Many Soil Types

The Tree performs well in almost every kind of soil. It does not require special care other than adding fertilizer or organic matter twice a year and an inch of water each week.

Chinese Chestnut Grows 3 Feet Per Year

It grows as much as two to three feet in a single growing Season, so that you will see significant growth each year. By year five, it usually produces its first batch of nuts. 

The Chinese Chestnut Tree Is An Outstanding Focal Point

It is an outstanding addition to an Asian-themed garden or as a focal point specimen. It grows approximately sixty feet high and forty feet wide.

The Chinese chestnut trees trunk is sturdy, medium brown in tone, and splits into several lovely, asymmetrical branches. The oblong leaves are yellow to golden green, eight inches long, four inches wide, and have serrated edges. The leaves turn a lovely soft hue of yellow in the fall.

If you want nuts, this tree is highly recommended. It produces fantastic edible nuts for consumption. Unlike American chestnuts, this species is thankfully resistant to chestnut blight. It has attractive foliage with a clear, toothed margin. This tree needs ample full sun to produce a good harvest. The Chinese Chestnut Tree is a disease-resistant and productive addition to any food garden.

Well rooted.

Well rooted to even huge roots for most of them. Believe they probably sent more than ordered to make up for a very few thin roots but haven't finished sticking them into soil. Well packaged and shipped on schedule. Well pleased and thanks!

Thriving in Tough Weather

I live in an area with unpredictable spring weather, so I was concerned about how a bare-root chestnut would handle the transition. Turns out, I worried for nothing. This tree came healthy, hydrated, and ready to grow. It handled a late frost like a champ. Very high quality stock from Tennessee Wholesale Nursery.

Worth Every Penny

Excellent pricing for such strong stock. My tree arrived looking like it came straight from the field—fresh, flexible roots and no damage at all. I planted it during a cool spell, and it has already pushed out its first flush of leaves. I can tell it is going to be a long-term anchor tree on our land.

A Pleasant Surprise

I ordered the Chinese chestnut out of curiosity more than anything else. When it arrived, I was surprised at the size and vigor of the rootstock. Even the branching looked well formed for a young tree. Four weeks in, the growth is vigorous. This one might become my new favorite addition to the property.

A Great Buy for Beginners

I am new to planting fruit and nut trees, so I appreciated how simple the whole process felt. The tree arrived fast, well-labeled, and protected in damp material that kept the roots in great shape. Their customer service even answered my quick question about spacing within an hour. The tree is thriving now. Could not have asked for an easier experience.

Better Than I Expected

To be honest, I was not sure a bare-root chestnut would survive my rocky soil here in southwest Virginia. But the tree arrived sturdier than expected, and the roots looked fantastic. After two months, it is standing tall with new leaves. Tennessee Wholesale Nursery delivered exactly what they promised.

Strong Start for My Orchard

I run a small hobby orchard, so I am picky about tree quality. The Chinese chestnut I ordered arrived with firm, healthy roots and excellent moisture protection. It went into the ground the same day, and within a week I saw the buds swelling. Very impressed with the consistency I have been getting from this nursery. Solid purchase.

The root system was robust and alive

This is the healthiest bare root tree I have purchased online. The root system was robust and alive, and the tree had a sturdy central leader. It is thriving just a couple of weeks after planting. Fantastic product from a trustworthy nursery.

Healthy Tree From the Start

My Chinese Chestnut Tree arrived looking freshly dug, with roots that were firm and full of moisture. I planted it as soon as the box came, and it adjusted quickly. It already shows the early swell of buds. Very pleased with the overall quality.
