| Botanical Name | Quercus virginiana |
| Description | The Live Oak is an enduring symbol of the South and a top-tier shade tree for the Houston metro area. This 15-gallon (15G) specimen is easy to plant while offering a head start on a majestic landscape. It is perfectly adapted to heavy clay soils and high humidity, featuring legendary wind resistance. Its leathery green leaves remain year-round, dropping only briefly in late winter. As a legacy tree, it eventually develops a massive, picturesque canopy that can span 100 feet. |
| Exposure | Full Sun |
| Height x Width | 40-60' Height x 60-100' Width |
| Water | Moderate; requires regular deep watering to establish. Once the root system is set in local clay, it is highly drought-tolerant. |
| Zones | 7 - 10 |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support canopy and root development. |
| Pruning | Prune only during mid-summer or mid-winter to avoid Oak Wilt. Pruning is mainly used to remove dead wood and establish a strong structure. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
