PLANT PROFILE

Quercus lusitanica (Lusitanian Oak, Gall Oak) looks excellent as a dense, evergreen screen or formal hedge, providing year-round privacy and structure with its finely toothed, soft green foliage. Its compact, upright growth habit creates a lush and well-defined boundary or windbreak, making it a versatile choice for both naturalistic and formal landscapes.

Reaching 3–5 metres tall and 2–4 metres wide, this hardy shrub or small tree thrives in full sun and adapts well to a variety of well-drained soils. It is drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal maintenance—pruning to shape enhances its dense form and suitability for clipped hedges.

Quercus lusitanica looks excellent when underplanted with low-growing natives or shade-tolerant groundcovers to create layered garden beds. Its resilience and neat appearance make it ideal for medium-scale gardens, urban screens, and windbreaks, adding both functional and ornamental value with year-round greenery.

Planting Tips: Ensuring a Strong Start

  • Select a sunny to part-shaded position with free-draining soil.

  • Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and of equal depth.

  • Backfill with native soil and water deeply.

  • Apply a 5–7 cm mulch layer around the base, keeping clear of the trunk.

  • Stake if exposed to wind during the first growing season.

Use this as a reference when digging your planting hole. We recommend digging at least 10% wider than the dimensions below to encourage strong root development.
