Description
Introducing the Pin Oak (Botanical Name: Quercus Palustris). This beloved tall shade tree boasts a tightly pyramidal habit of growth, making it a popular choice for providing vertical interest in any landscape.
Also known as the Swamp Oak, it thrives in full sun and regular watering. It prefers loose, acidic soils and is well-suited for zones 4 to 8. Its dark green deciduous foliage serves as a lush backdrop throughout the growing season, adding beauty and depth to any outdoor space.
As autumn arrives, this Oak truly shines, with its spiny lobed leaves transforming into a brilliant shade of red. This outstanding fall color is a sight to behold, making the tree a standout feature in any garden or streetscape.
While the Pin Oak may produce fruit that can be messy in the landscape, occasional clean-up is a small price to pay for the beauty and shade it provides. Additionally, its ability to attract wildlife adds to its ecological value and appeal.
Consider adding the Pin Oak to your landscape for its striking appearance, fast growth, and ability to thrive in various conditions. Whether used as a street tree, for vertical interest, or simply to enjoy its stunning fall color, this tree is sure to make a lasting impression for generations to come.
