I am looking for a Lakota Pecan tree. Any ideas where I can get one?

Also, do I need to plant 2 trees for pollination or are most pecan cultivars self-pollinating?

You should not rely on self-pollination, Keoni. You'll get better results planting two different cultivars that bloom at compatible times. 'Lakota,' for example, should be a good pollenizer for, and be well pollenized by 'Pawnee', 'Osage' and 'Giles'. You might want to check out this publication from the University of Georgia Extension Service on growing pecans in the home landscape: http://www.caes.uga.edu/applications/publications/files/pdf/B%201348_1.PDF

Keoni, try Full Bloom Nursery- Kelly has a good collection up north in Cleremont. She is a member here on HomeTalk and you can contact her here or she also has a website..http://www.fullbloomnursery.com/ It shows that she does stock Pecans...but you might need to call for varieties

Still looking for someone locally (Gainesville, GA area). Womack is a possiblility as a mail order but is not convenient location-wise or price-wise.

Keoni, Johnson Nursery in Ellijay, Georgia sells pecans. Not local but regional, you could drive there and see what they have. Check out their offereings www.johnsonnursery.com I ordered blueberries from them and the plants were shipped, arrived in good condition.
