The Sumner Pecan Tree ('Sumner') is a popular, high-yielding, and disease-resistant cultivar (especially against scab) known for producing large, thin-shelled, high-quality nuts. Suited for USDA Zones 6–10, it is a fast-growing, upright shade tree (75-100 ft tall) recommended for the southeastern US. It requires a Type I pollinator (e.g., Cape Fear, Creek) and bears fruit in 3-7 years.
