Arizona White Oak

Arizona White Oak – A magnificent oak tree from the sky islands of the Southwest. An extremely handsome evergreen oak that is well adapted to our climate here in the Pacific Northwest, handling our coldest winters with ease and not seeming to mind the dry summers, though it does enjoy some deep waterings in mid to late summer. Great wildlife and landscape tree.
