In the fall, pecan trees transform into a spectacle of colors, with their foliage turning brilliant shades of yellow and orange, making them a sight to behold.One of the pecan tree’s most distinguishing features is its long, smooth, gray-brown bark, which develops deep furrows as the tree matures. These furrows give older pecan trees a rugged and weathered appearance. The branches of the pecan tree spread wide, forming a majestic crown spanning over 50 feet in diameter. The nuts, encased in a hard, woody shell, are ovoid, and the edible portion inside is known for its rich, sweet flavor.
