PLANT PROFILE

Quercus robur 'Fastigiata' (Upright English Oak) looks excellent as a narrow, columnar feature tree that provides strong vertical structure without excessive canopy spread. Its compact form makes it especially suitable for formal gardens, avenue plantings, and urban spaces where space is limited but architectural impact is desired.

The dark green, lobed foliage turns warm yellow to brown in autumn, adding seasonal interest and texture. Its upright habit with a strong central leader ensures a uniform and elegant silhouette throughout the year. In spring, small yellow-green catkins and brown acorns on long stalks contribute subtle natural detail.

This cultivar performs well in full sun with well-drained soil and is tolerant of urban conditions, clay soils, and moderate drought once established. It requires minimal maintenance, with only light pruning needed to shape the tree in early years.

‘Fastigiata’ looks excellent when paired with low-growing shade-tolerant plants or underplanted with spring bulbs to enhance its vertical form and seasonal colour contrast in both residential and civic landscapes. It’s a refined, practical choice for creating strong, formal lines and lasting garden structure.

How to Plant:

  1. Choose a location with well-draining soil.
  2. Dig a hole that is twice as wide as the bag and at the same depth.
  3. Position the tree in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
  4. Backfill with soil and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets.
  5. Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

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.
