Premium Korean Pine Tree (Pinus koraiensis) - 2 Year Old Live Plant for Pine Nut Production | Perfect for Home Gardens, Landscaping & Sustainable Farming

Product Description

Wherever the white pine grows, the Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) will grow as well. A well drained, sandy, acidic, even poor soil, will be perfect for it. The Korean pine is the only tree that we do not sell bare rooted, it comes in a small bag with earth. It's important that you plant the seedling with the soil provided (but without the bag). This soil has been inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi. This special fungi enables the Korean pine to absorb nutrients from the soil. Harvest This tree requires little maintenance. We are unaware of any disease sensitivity. The harvest of the cones is easy as they fall on the ground. The more laborious job is to liberate the kernels and remove the nuts. You will need gloves and a lot of patience as the cones are very sticky! If harvesting this nut on a larger scale, it would be more efficient to mechanise the process. Every cone contains an average of 120 kernels. The Korean Pine will take 10-20 years to produce nuts.
