Regal Prince Oak

Why it rocks:

A newer variety of columnar oak, the Regal Prince Oak is an improvement over many older varieties of columnar oak. This tree is a cross between Swamp White Oak and the Columnar English Oak. Regal Prince Oak has a stronger and fuller branching structure than other trees in this category, and the two toned green leaves contrast beautifully. Regal Prince is resistant to mildew and is notable for excellent columnar form. 

Where to put it:

Because of its columnar form, Regal Prince Oak is often planted in rows to provide screening, wind breaking, or just to provide a formal look. This tree also works well individually and is a great addition to any yard. The dense foliage creates living screens for blocking unsightly views and muffling traffic sounds. Its columnar form is a perfect fit for narrow or confined spaces. Planted alone, in groves, or in rows, it’s the perfect vertical design element. 

What it needs:

Regal Prince Oak is an adaptable tree that typically works well in most any situation.
