Quercus x warei 'Kindred Spirit®' (Nadler)

Growing and Maintenance Tips:

An extremely tight, narrow tree tolerant of urban conditions and drought, and its leaves are resistant to mildew. It is an excellent selection for landscapes where vertical space is an issue, and suitable for street tree planting.

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.
