QUERCUS ROB SKINNY GENES
Grower Notes:
Quercus robur x alba 'JFS-KW2QX' PP24442 is commonly referred to as Skinny Genes® Oak. It is a fast-growing, columnar, fastigiate hybrid of Q. Robur and Q. Alba (English and White Oak). It features glossy, dark green, mildew resistant foliage with a very clean summer appearance. In fall it turns an attractive golden yellow. Skinny Genes® is the narrowest oak tree cultivar to date - selected from a second generation seedling of a sister cultivar, Crimson Spire™ Oak.
Skinny Genes® is deer resistant and thrives in full sun in average, well-drained soils. It is a great choice for a tall privacy screen or as a stately focal point in the landscape.
