Identifying Live Oak Features

Reference Type
University Outreach Publication

Live oak (Quercus virginiana) is a tree found in the lower Coastal Plains of the United States.  Identifying live oak is more than recognizing nearly evergreen leaves and Spanish moss drapes. Live oak, especially when small or juvenile, can be mistaken for several other trees. This publication will present live oak attributes and characters which can help with both the identification and appreciation of this majestic tree.
