SCARLET LETTER OAK Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
Quercus is very easy to grow and adapts to most conditions. Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.

I bought two of these, and they are much larger and bushier than I expected, and very healthy. They have the most beautiful, refined oak leaves I have ever seen. I am very impressed.
