Description:
Quercus marilandica, commonly known as blackjack oak, is a robust tree with bristly, lobed leaves and nearly black, rough bark. It grows to a height and width of 20-40 feet and is known for its drought tolerance and ability to thrive in poor soils. This oak attracts butterflies and bees, and its acorns ripen in the fall, providing food for wildlife. It serves as a host plant for caterpillars and is hardy in USDA zones 6 through 9.
