Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Native to the Siskiyou Mountains in the fabled home of Big-Foot, this rare and special species often shares the steep slopes with the western Rhododendron. The large, leathery, chestnut-like dark-green leaves have toothed edges and distinct lateral veins; the foliage emerges with a lovely bronze tint. Small egg-shaped acorns are another attractive feature of this wide-spreading, 6 foot shrub. This unusual beauty of an oak is an important butterfly plant for the California Sister and the Gold-Hunter's Hairstreak. S-PSh/M-D-GDr
