Kindred Spirit® Oak 1.25- 1.50"
Overview: An oak grown for its glossy green foliage on a narrow, columnar habit.
Mature size: Varies by species and cultivar, generally 40–60 ft. tall and 15–25 ft. wide for narrow selections.
Sun exposure: Full sun
Flowering season: Inconspicuous flowers (catkins) in spring
Hardiness: USDA Zones 4–9, depending on species
Water needs: Average; consistent moisture while establishing, more drought-tolerant afterward
Special features: An unusually narrow, columnar oak hybrid, useful where a full-spreading oak wouldn't fit. Long-lived native shade tree; oaks support an exceptional number of native insect and bird species, more than almost any other tree genus; slow to moderate growth rate; give it room to mature since it's a long-term investment in the landscape
Wildlife value: Exceptional wildlife value; acorns feed many mammals and birds, and oaks host more native caterpillar species than almost any other tree
Botanical name: Quercus x 'Nadler'
