Nursery contributed plant descriptions

An extremely handsome, evergreen native oak found in western dry country and able to withstand great drought, these from acorns collected in the wild near lake Bowman, Oregon. Wonderfully adapted to dry summer climates and very successful as a street tree. Fast growing when young and slowing in maturity, these can reach 20-30 ft in your lifteime in deep soil with bright sun to part shade. Frost hardy into at least the single digits, F, low USDA zone 7. Can be shrubby when young so encourage a strong leader.
