Quercus ×schochiana Quercus ×schochiana

This hybrid between Q. palustris and Q. phellos grows into a medium-sized to large tree. The open crown is round and reaches a height of 10 to 15 m, sometimes slightly higher. The lanceolate leaves are very variably lobed. In the same tree, both entire leaves and lobed leaves can be present. The lobed leaves have 1 to 4 forward-pointing pointed lobes on each side. They are a glossy dark green. The approximately 1 cm large ovoid acorns are up to one third enclosed by the cup, which is covered with adjacent scales. This hybrid was first found in cultivation in Germany,at the end of the 19th century. Later, plants of this hybrid were also found in places where the natural range of both parent species overlapped. There are several hybrids of Q. palustris and Q. phellos in circulation.
