Thanks. Yes, I was disappointed. I grew up in NE Texas with pecan trees everywhere, and then spent most of my adult life in the midwest and Pennsylvania. Finally getting back down south (N of Chattanooga, TN) and one of the first things I planted were the two pecans. Between the Japanese beetles, the ambrosia beetles, the stink bugs and now the SWD fly, it is getting a lot harder to succeed as a fruit grower than it used to be.
