View prices and availability
Small tree with round crown, to about 6 m. This tree was also described as a cultivar of Q. cerris because of the much closer similarity between the leaves. The glossy, dark green leaves are 7 to 9 cm long with a thin point on each lobe. Depending on the climate of the site, the leaves are evergreen to semi-evergreen. During severe cold, the leaves turn brown in the winter, only falling when the new leaves emerge. A healthy, warmth-loving tree which prefers a limy soil. Its Central-European origin means it tolerates our winters better than other Quercus hispanica cultivars.
