Quercus x Regal Prince

Regal Prince Oak

Regal Prince oak (Quercus 'Long') has a narrow, upright crown and glossy green foliage. Its English-oak and swamp-white-oak parentage produces a substantial tree with a controlled outline and mildew-resistant leaves.

The canopy loses its leaves for winter. Autumn color includes yellow. Allow the natural framework to develop without crowding neighboring plants or paths.

Choose a sunny position with well-drained soil. Water during establishment and allow enough room for the developing crown.
