Jack Oak (Quercus x jackiana) - Zone 4

Jack oak is adaptable to sandy, loamy, and clay soils, provided they are well-drained and slightly acidic. They prefer moist, medium-textured soils, but can tolerate dry soils once established. They prefer full sun at maturity and partial shade when young.

While its parent species are known to provide quality wood for cabinetry and flooring, too little information is available about Jack Oak. Given that this cross is derived from white oak and swamp white oak, it is expected that Quercus jackiana will express a blend of their characteristics.

A large tree, it can grow from 12 to 29 meters tall and 9 to 30 meters wide.

This self-sterile tree is wind-pollinated. Another white oak family tree is needed to pollinate it.

Our seeds come from the Montérégie-Ouest region.
