Zone 3-8

Also known as Mossycup Oak. Growth to 75 feet. One of the most distinctive eastern oaks. Its peculiarly shaped leaves, fringed acorns, and corky twigs make it an unique ornamental tree in addition to its value as a timber producer. Will make satisfactory growth on poor, dry, clay soils, and its resistance to smoke and gas injury further increases its value as an ornamental. Fall color is dual yellow-green to yellow-brown.
