Empire® Live Oak

Popular landscape tree that grows well in heat and poor soils. It eventually reaches a very large size that yields dense shade. The leaves are dark green and leathery. Tolerates drought once established. A relatively fast grower when young. This hardy naive is semi-evergreen – where it holds its leaves on the stems through winter and sheds them in early spring when the new buds swell.

Empire® Live Oaks are all grown from the acorns of a wonderful specimen selected for it’s upright habit, fast growth and uniform shape.
