Description

Grow one of the most iconic and resilient oak species of the American Southwest with Canyon Live Oak Tree Seeds (Quercus chrysolepis). Native to canyons, foothills, and mountain slopes, this evergreen oak is prized for its rugged beauty, dense canopy, and exceptional drought tolerance once established. Its glossy dark green leaves feature distinctive golden undersides, creating year-round visual interest in landscapes and naturalized settings.

Canyon Live Oak develops into a large, long-lived shade tree with a broad, spreading crown that provides valuable wildlife habitat and shelter. Its acorns serve as an important food source for birds, deer, squirrels, and other native wildlife. Adaptable to a variety of soil types and growing conditions, this hardy oak is an excellent choice for restoration projects, native landscapes, and drought-conscious gardens.

For best germination results, we recommend 30 days of cold moist stratification prior to planting. With proper preparation, these seeds offer a germination range of approximately 60–80%.
