Another fabulous cold hardy evergreen Oak! Undulate, fiddle-shaped leaves, deep green, glossy and ever-so-lightly furry above with a thick woolly coating of cream to light orange fur beneath on 15-20 ft upright trees, showing off the reflective leaf undersides. OoooH! Sun to part shade, accepting of drought once established but deep infrequent summer water speeds growth. Frost hardy in USDA zone 7, possibly 6.
