You are bidding on 12 BEAR OAK ACORNS - Quercus ilicifolia. The first oak species on the east coast to drop acorns in September . Trees do not produce many acorns and only produce fruit every other year . Also known as Scrub Oak . A small deciduous tree 6 ft to 20 ft high, more frequently a rounded shrub; young shoots hoary with short down. It is called Bear Oak, reportedly because only bears like the very bitter acorns. Leaves 2 to 4 in. long, 1 to 21/2 in. wide, obovate or oval in the main, but deeply three-, five-, or seven-lobed, the apex and the lobes narrowly triangular, pointed, and terminated by a bristle-like tip, the base wedge-shaped, dark glossy green and glabrous (or soon becoming so) above, clothed beneath with a close whitish felt; stalk 1/4 to 5/8 in. long, slender. Its leaves die off to a scarlet and yellow color . Fruits solitary or in pairs; acorns 1/2 in. long, roundish, ripening the second season, the lower half enclosed in a short-stalked cup with thin, flattened, downy scales. Native to northeastern U.S., from New York and New England states, south to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia and North Carolina. Found on dry, sandy soils and open rocky outcrops. Fire promotes this species. Hardy to USDA Zone 5 See my store for 600+ seeds , live plants ( during the warmer months ) and over 300+ books on plants and gardening .
