| Botanical Name | Quercus shumardii |
| Description | The Shumard Red Oak is a favorite native selection for the Houston metro area, offering an ideal combination of rapid growth and legendary durability. This 30-gallon (30G) specimen provides a significant landscape presence and immediate shade. Highly adaptable to various soil types, it thrives in the heavy clay and high humidity of Willis and Houston. The deeply lobed, dark green leaves transition to a vibrant, fiery red in late autumn, offering one of the most reliable and spectacular fall color displays in Southeast Texas. |
| Exposure | Full Sun |
| Height x Width | 40-60' Height x 30-50' Width |
| Water | Moderate; requires regular watering to establish its root system. Once mature, it is remarkably drought-tolerant and resilient in Gulf Coast conditions. |
| Zones | 5 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support its vigorous growth and canopy health. |
| Pruning | Minimal; prune during winter dormancy to maintain a strong central leader and remove any low-hanging or crossing branches as the tree grows. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
