Plant Description

The Quercus virgiliana, or Italian Oak, is a majestic deciduous tree known for its broad, rounded canopy and thick, deeply lobed leaves. These leaves display a vibrant green hue during the growing season, turning to warm shades of brown and gold in autumn. The tree has rugged, grayish-brown bark that develops deep furrows with age, enhancing its stately appearance. Acorns of the Quercus virgiliana are small, rounded, and smooth, serving as a food source for local wildlife, while also adding to the charm of this resilient oak.
