Quercus trojana - Macedonian Oak, Trojan Oak
This majestic species is rarely available to purchase. It is a slow growing deciduous oak from the Balkans, Italy and Turkey which keeps its brown leathery foliage throughout the winter. A handsome tree producing up to 6cm long, huge acorns (maturing takes two years), a similar size to those of the Quercus libani. The Quercus trojana however, has much broader leaves, featuring a wavy margin and toothed edge. It grows very well on dry, alkaline soils, reaching a height of 5-6m with an overall evolved conical shape, which can be attributed to climate change and this species could quite rightly be classed as a "climate change species".
Its extremely valuable in forestry production as its hard timber was used for centuries for building ships and furniture. Fully hardy to the UK climate.
We have freshly potted, rooted seeds for sale, with the stem ready to sprout.
