Willow Oak

A native to the Eastern and Southern United States, willow oak is a fast-growing and long-lived tree. Narrow leaves emerge in early spring, maintaining their deep-green color in summer and changing in fall to an attractive yellow or bronze color before dropping for winter. Acorns are only about 1/2" in diameter. Acorns provide food for wildlife! Many gardeners admire the willow oaks that Milliken Corporation in Spartanburg has planted on either side of I-85.
