A nut tree is a type of tree that produces edible seeds known as nuts. Common examples include walnut, almond, and pecan trees. These trees are valued for their nutritious nuts, which are rich in healthy fats, protein, and vitamins. Nut trees can be found in various climates, often thriving in temperate regions. Nut trees typically require specific growing conditions, including well-drained soil and adequate sunlight. They can take several years to mature and start producing nuts. In addition to their nutritional benefits, nut trees also provide shade and contribute to biodiversity in their ecosystems.
