Our Plant of The Week – Shumard Red Oak

Shumard Red Oaks are more than just trees; they’re a statement. One of the most sought-after large shade trees, they thrive in DFW’s alkaline soils and bring a touch of natural elegance to any landscape. As Texas natives, they’re perfectly at home here, with lush, glossy green leaves in the summer that transform into a breathtaking red-orange in the fall.

These majestic trees develop wide, spreading canopies that soften and round as they mature. Once established, they’ll tower 60-80’ tall and stretch 50-60’ wide, providing generous shade while remaining cold-hardy and drought-tolerant.

Plant a Shumard Red Oak in full sun, and you’ll enjoy summer shade that cools your home and winter sunlight that warms it, truly a tree that grows with your family and your landscape.
