About this plant
The Quercus palustris 'Green Dwarf', commonly known as the Pin Oak Low Graft, is an exceptional specimen for those seeking the distinguished character of a Pin Oak within a more confined space. This unique cultivar features a low graft, resulting in a dense, rounded crown that sits closer to the ground, offering a sophisticated and architectural presence. Its deeply lobed, glossy green leaves provide brilliant autumn color, transitioning to shades of bronze and russet before falling. Ideal as a focal point in a compact garden, along a walkway, or flanking an entrance, its formal habit and year-round interest make it a superb choice for discerning homeowners. 'A Cut Above' selects only the finest 'Green Dwarf' specimens, ensuring a healthy, vigorous tree ready to thrive in your landscape for years to come. Enjoy its sturdy structure and classic elegance without the extensive height of a traditional Pin Oak.
Care & maintenance
Requires minimal pruning once established, primarily to maintain its desired shape or remove any crossing branches. Ensure adequate air circulation. Fertilize in spring with a balanced tree fertilizer if soil is poor. Protect young trees from trunk damage.
