The paper shell nuts of the Elliot pecan are almost round in appearance and mature very early during the fall when wholesale prices are highest. The nut content of the Elliot pecan begin to completely fill out rapidly in July and August, and the interior of the kernel develops to maturity, usually by mid-October. North Florida is the origin of the Elliot pecan nut tree, regarded by shellers and growers of orchard pecans to be of the highest quality. Sometimes the Elliot variety only bears in alternate years, after the trees approach the age of 50 years old. Look for Elliot pecan tree nuts to normally fully mature in October, for fast marketing to brokers and commercial pecan papershell nut shellers.
• The Elliot Pecan tree produces a papershell nut that is easy to shell out in perfect halves with a nut cracker. Many commercial orchard growers have discovered that in the deep South, especially Florida an orchard of Elliot Pecan trees produces the largest crops of nuts year after year.
