<< PREV Image 1 of 4 NEXT >>

OAK 'PIN'

Pin Oak is strongly pyramidal with conspicuous horizontal branching. Leaves are glossy dark green in summer changing to a brilliant red fall color. A very uniform tree in its youth, as it matures a more natural habit is revealed.

Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips:
Very easy to grow, adapts to most conditions (avoid high ph areas). Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.
To give your tree the best start possible, we include a free fertilizer packet.
Interesting Notes:
Pin Oak makes a very nice tree in the landscape.
