| Pecan tree is a deciduous tree native to parts of North America. The tree can grow upto 140 feet in height. The seeds are edible and can be eaten fresh or used in sweet desserts. The most common dessert with pecan as a central ingredient is the pecan pie. It is also an excellent source of Vitamin E. The U.S.A. produces between 80% and 95% of the world’s pecans, with an annual crop of 150,000 to 200,000 tons from more than 10 million trees. These trees may live and bear edible seeds for more than 300 years. The 36th Texas Legislature in 1919 made the pecan tree the state tree of Texas. |
