Texas Red Oak
Height:
30 - 75 ft
Spread: 25 - 50 ft
A native of Central Texas on alkaline and slightly acidic soil, Texas
Red Oak grows well in full sun on a wide variety of soils. The foliage
turns bright shades of vivid red and orange in autumn. The bark is dark
gray to black with platelike scales, although sometimes it is light gray
and smooth. While it prefers moist, rich soil where it will grow rapidly,
it will also tolerate drier locations. It is found on alkaline limestone
and neutral to slightly acid gravels and sands of north central and central
Texas west to the Pecos River. It is highly stress-tolerant and will endure
urban conditions quite well, including high pH soil. It appears to be
well-adapted to clay soil, even those which are poorly drained.
It can be affected by Oak wilt, a fatal disease beginning with a slight
crinkling and paling of the leaves. The disease may be spread by insects
or pruning tools. Oak wilt appears to infect Red, Black and Live Oaks
particularly. Avoid pruning in late spring and early summer in areas where
Oak wilt is present. Dormant or summer pruning is best.
