Willow Oak Tree
Willow Oak Tree grows best in zones 5 to 9 and need to be planted in a spacious area to make room for its growth. They can grow up to 40 to 75 feet tall in its lifetime and reaches its mature height in about two years. The tree can spread out to reach up to 25 to 50 feet from its trunk. The leaves of the tree are shaped like willow leaves and are where it gets its name.
They Lives For Over 100 Years
They are bright green, oblong leaves that are up to 4 inches long. Small yellow-green flowers grow in spring before leaf growth begins. After 15 years of age, the willow oak tree will start producing acorns. The deciduous tree works in most soil types, only requiring it to be well-draining to prevent root rot. If a large tree is preferred, then planting in a location that receives full sun is required.
The Tree Likes Lots of Water
The tree can tolerate partial shade, but its branches will be weaker and unable to support a larger size. The tree requires regular watering during its root establishment but can tolerate drought conditions after they are set. In a typical tree, pruning is only needed to remove dead branches and to shape the tree if desired. If planted in a lower light area, regular pruning will be required to prevent upper limbs from growing straggly towards the sun. Upper branches are to be cut back to allow for more energy to build a more substantial structure. Willow oak trees are typically planted for the shade their large forms can produce.
