- USDA Cold Hardiness Zone: 7
- Native Range: Eastern and central Mexico.
- Soil: Average soil conditions and neutral pH.
- Light: Full sun.
- Height in the Garden: 30'
- Attributes: Broadleaf evergreen oak with narrow, elongated foliage and a narrow-ish, attractive structure. Features pachyderm like bark.
- Notes: This is a wonderful, broadleaf evergreen oak from the magical, primordial mysterious and beautiful Mexico. The entire breadth of Mexico is a botanical hotspot and treasure chest of extreme oak and conifer diversity rivaled only by East Asia. I love Mexico, Mexican Plants, Mexican people and especially Mexican foods. Q. mexicana might make a good candidate for bonsai culture given its small-ish proportions.
- Uses: Unusual collector's tree.
