How to Grow and Care for Willow Oak Seedlings in Your Garden

Willow Oak Seedlings will grow up to 75 feet tall in many types of soils. At maturity, they spread out to be about 50 feet wide. This member of the red oak family takes good characteristics from many other family members. When mature, it has a rounded oak shape and lots of foliage, making it an ideal choice for a shade tree. Before reaching maturity, the tree may have a pyramidal form. This sun-loving tree has a dark gray trunk. Deep furrows develop in the bark as the tree matures, adding visual interest to this tree. 

Its leaves are light green, with smooth edges and a bristle-tipped top. They are narrow and can be up to 9 inches long but seldom more than 1 inch across. In the autumn, the leaves turn a dull gold to yellowish-brown color.

The Benefits of Planting Willow Oak Seedlings for Your Landscape

Willow Oak Seedlings bloom mid-spring with yellowish-green male and female flowers on the same tree. The flowers appear about the same time as the leaves and are easily noticed if you look closely. Both sexes appear in downy catkins. The wind pollinates the flowers. This tree prolifically produces round acorns between 0.25-and-0.50 inches long that take two years to mature. You should expect acorns to appear once the tree is about 15. 

Why Willow Oak Seedlings Are a Perfect Addition to Your Yard

Willow Oak Seedlings grow about 24 inches annually, making them an outstanding choice as a foundation tree. They do very well in wet conditions, but a mature tree can withstand short drought conditions. It is not harmed by most air pollution or salt, making it ideal for planting along roadways.
