The Marsol chestnut tree (Castanea sp.) produces very large nuts (26 grams on average), the attractive reddish colored nuts have a good flavor and peel well. Coming from a cross of open-pollinatedCastanea sativa X crenatafrom northern France, it ripens at the end of September. Our seedlings come from parent trees in Northern Michigan that have had sporadic winter doses of -29 celcius. Chestnut trees are magnificent in their leaf shape, their rarity, their flowering and finally the big bugs in October.
