Quercus libani 'Angustfolia' Quercus libani 'Angustfolia'

This narrow-leaved variety of Lebanon oak forms a graceful medium-sized tree with a broad ovoid crown. The tree grows with relatively thin twigs, forming a dense crown. The young twigs are lacy and covered with downy grey-white hairs. The leaf is lanceolate, 5 to 10 cm long and 1.5 to 2 cm wide. On the upper side it is a glossy dark green, the underside is lighter. Like the species, the edge is sharply toothed. The acorns are two-thirds enclosed by the nap, which is set with broad adjacent scales. A beautiful, graceful park tree first described in 1892.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
