A good tree to plant: Texas Red Oak


A good to plant in the houston area is the Texas Red Oak. These trees do well here and have less disease problems than your non native trees that nurseries sell in the area. I like these trees because they are self pruning and do not have many root and limb problems. Here are the specifics on this tree:


Plant Habitat: Medium tree


Exposure: Full Sun


Flower Color:Red Brownish Leaf


Blooming: Spring


Height: 75 feet


Width: 60 feet


Plant Character: Deciduous


Heat Tolerance:High


Water Requirement:Low


Soil Requirement:alkaline adaptable
