The Chinese Chestnut tree, originating from China and Korea, is renowned for its ability to withstand cold climates and resist common diseases that afflict other Chestnut trees. Not only does it serve as an excellent pollinator for other Chestnut trees, but it is also self-fertile, yielding a greater abundance of nuts when planted alongside its counterparts. This versatile tree is highly sought after for multiple purposes, including the harvest of delicious chestnuts, attracting wildlife such as deer, and eventually reaping the benefits of its matured lumber.  (USDA Zones 4-9)
