I'm pretty sure it's a pecan tree. No, it doesn't need another *just* like it. It needs another pecan tree but of a different variety that blooms at the same time. Pecans need a different variety for a pollinator. Since you don't know *which* variety this pecan is, then you don't know what variety to get. That leaves you with having to get TWO pecans of different varieties that bloom at the same time as the one you presently have. This way, you will insure that at least one of the new pecan trees you get is a different variety. Does that make sense? Pecans are pollinated by the wind.
