UT Plant of the Month – Kindred Spirit Oak

Looking for an easy-to-grow tree that doesn’t require a lot of space? Kindred Spirit oak is the answer. Nurseryman Earl Cully planted a thousand acorns from a cross of the columnar English oak (Quercus robur ‘Fastigiata’) with our native swamp white oak (Q. bicolor). Only a few of the hundreds of seedlings had the desired attributes of both species that Cully was looking for and made it into his final cut. Kindred Spirit® Oak has shiny, dark, leathery leaves with a silvery undercoat. For more information on this Oak variety; CLICK HERE
