Growing and Maintenance Tips:


A tall-growing narrow tree, suitable for landscapes where space is limited, or where a vertical accent is desired. Planted in a row, they can also be used as a privacy screen or windbreak.

Do not prune Oaks during the growing season. Oaks are highly susceptible to Oak Wilt, which is spread by a sap beetle that is attracted to fresh wounds. Prune oaks only during the dormant season in winter after the leaves have fallen. Oak Wilt can kill a mature Oak within one season.
