no thats just stupid lol Carya illinoinensis the pecan is naturally propagated by seed. As the pecan nut is the seed you can therefore produce a pecan tree from a pecan nut.
A pecan tree (Carya illinoinensis) is in the phylum Angiosperms, which encompasses flowering plants. More specifically, it belongs to the class Magnoliopsida, order Juglandales, and family Juglandaceae. Angiosperms are characterized by their ability to produce flowers and seeds enclosed within a fruit.
Pecan trees are typically grown in an orchard setting rather than a grove. Orchards are organized plantings of fruit or nut trees intended for commercial production, whereas groves are more commonly associated with natural groupings of trees, such as citrus groves or coconut groves.
Pecan is considered a hardwood.
