About Carya Cordiformis Trees: Carya Cordiformis is one of the easiest tree species to identify. The Carya Cordiformis alone makes it difficult to mistake for another species and combined with the alternate compound leaves and relatively large nuts, it is very distinctive. The nuts are reported to be bitter, as one of the common names suggests.

Carya Cordiformis grows most often in deciduous forests, but it is seldom if ever a dominant species. It is apparently absent from the extreme northern counties. .
