Yup they do well further north but not too far! A lot of the best hican cultivars are originally from PA and are hardy to ~zone 5. And like in this pic, hicans are usually grafted on ‘northern pecans’ (also hardy to zone 5) to be super vigorous and productive like southern pecans.

#Ikerbasque researchers José Mª Porro and Viktor Petrenko presented #ARGITU, a proposed accelerator-driven neutron source promoted by #ESSBilbao. Based on #HiCANS technology, it could broaden access to neutron research supporting materials, energy and industrial studies.

New paper: "Neutron production with a 10 kW HiCANS based on SATELIT, a CEA-Saclay target with liquid lithium", link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.09727

They aren’t showy like an apple. Don’t command fame like a chestnut. But in a changing climate, hicans offer something rarer: adaptability. They can handle the heat, the swings, the stress.

Imagine a hedgerow with hicans interspersed. Their deep roots stabilize soil. Their nuts feed turkeys, squirrels, deer—and you. Their leaves break wind, drop nutrients, and tell stories in the breeze.
April 16, 2025 at 5:03 PM
Agroforestry is about more than yield—it’s about relationships. And hicans are relational trees. Grafted from old stock, grown alongside others, they don’t just survive; they integrate.
April 16, 2025 at 5:03 PM
Hicans are a botanical middle child. Not quite pecan, not quite hickory. But what they are is resilient. They thrive in marginal soils, bear rich, oily nuts, and feed both wildlife and people alike.
