About the Belle Epine
Chestnut tree Castanea sativa Belle Epine is a healthy, fertile, tree with edible chestnuts. This originally French variety produces tasty edible chestnuts. It is a fast-growing tree and is also widely used as a pollinator due to its late flowering. Its flowers are also a real addition to biodiversity!
Quality Note
The nuts are of high quality and reddish-brown in colour. The fruit peels well and, moreover, the fruit falls with peel so the fruit is protected on ground. However, we recommend picking them before falling.
Planting several different varieties together often gives a higher fruit yield with better filled chestnuts.
