Coldy-Hardy Fruits and Nuts by Allyson Levy and Scott Serrano

Coldy-Hardy Fruits and Nuts by Allyson Levy and Scott Serrano

Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts is a one-stop compendium of the most productive, edible fruit-and nut-bearing crops that push the boundaries of what can survive winters in cold-temperate growing regions. While most nurseries and guidebooks feature plants that are riddled with pest problems, veteran growers and founders of the Hortus Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, Allyson Levy and Scott Serrano, focus on both common and unfamiliar fruits that have few, if any, pest or disease problems and an overall higher level of resilience.

Inside Cold-Hardy Fruits and Nuts you’ll find:

  •   Taste profiles for all fifty hardy fruits and nuts, with notes on harvesting and uses
  •   Plant descriptions and natural histories
  •   Recommended cultivars, both new and classic
  •   Propagation methods for increasing plants
  •   Nut profiles including almonds, chestnuts, walnuts, and pecans
  •   Fertilization needs and soil/site requirements
  •   And much more!

Shipping vs. Pick Up

CLICK HERE to see how shipping compares to pick up.

Shipping: Every year we ship thousands of trees across Canada (except BC due to CFIA regulations). We carefully bag roots in damp sawdust, then box them and send them out via courrier. CLICK HERE to see our shipping policy.

Pick-up: We also have thousands of trees picked up from our nursery each year. The pick-up options is free, though you must wait until you have been emailed a confirmation that your order is ready to pick up, which will have further information such as hours, locations, etc. We really appreciate if you can make an appointment to pick up, then we can be as organized as possible during our busy season.
