Description
Possibly the most majestic evergreen tree in the British Isles. Leathery green leaves, dark and glossy above, downy beneath, sometimes toothed when young, but very variable in form. Produces elongated yellow catkins, then acorns in autumn which are smaller and more pointed than those of English or Sessile Oak. The tree supports plenty of wildlife. Responds well to clipping, making an excellent hedge especially in coastal areas, where it thrives forming a wind resistant hedge. Not suitable for very cold inland areas. Protect from cold when young. Suitable added in a mixed hedge.
