Loquat Leaf Oak

Quercus rhysophylla

Loquat Leaf Oak is a remarkable, fast-growing evergreen oak from the mountains of northeastern Mexico, distinguished by its unusually large, leathery leaves that bear a striking resemblance to those of a loquat, far larger and bolder than those of any typical oak. Growing into a substantial shade tree, its dense, glossy canopy creates an impressive tropical effect quite unlike the conventional oak silhouette. Well-adapted to the limestone soils and climate of Texas and the Southwest, it is a genuinely dramatic and unusual tree for gardeners seeking something truly out of the ordinary.
