Live Oak Tree β Majestic & Long-Lived Shade Tree
• The Live Oak Tree (Quercus virginiana) is one of the most iconic trees of the American South, renowned for its massive, spreading canopy and evergreen foliage. This majestic tree provides dense shade and a stunning presence in any landscape. With a lifespan of several hundred years, Live Oaks are commonly found lining historic streets, large estates, and public parks. Their strong, wind-resistant branches and deep root systems make them excellent for withstanding storms and coastal conditions. Whether planted as a single specimen or in rows to create a stately avenue, the Live Oak is a tree that defines the landscape for generations.
