According to the site above..".Fruit: Nearly globose, 1 to 1 1/2 inches, with a thin husk that mostly splits to base upon maturation, nut is not ribbed and the seed is usually sweet, matures in early fall."

But I am only familliar with a couple of Carya and am rather rusty.


Thank you for your comment, Silversurfer. I went out to check on the nuts to see what they look like now, and they're all gone. I suppose the squirrels have absconded with them. Glare Oh well.
