Deciduous nut

The Chinquapin Chestnut (Castanea pumila) is a dwarf chestnut tree species prized for edible, sweet-flavored nuts and ornamental beauty. Unlike larger chestnut trees, this compact variety fits well into smaller gardens and patios while producing harvests of nutritious nuts. Adaptable to well-drained soils and full sun, Chinquapin chestnuts are relatively low-maintenance and suitable for gardeners seeking both food and landscape interest.
