The Natural Gardener usually has a good selection of oaks. Which variety
were you looking for? Which part of town do you live? Knowing that would help in selecting a good oak for your soil. -- Victor Martinez Send your spam he Email me he |

Thanks for the info. We live in NW Austin (between Spicewood Spring and
Anderson Mill). I'm thinking about a Live Oak, but not sure if that is good for my soil. Regards, Jianli In article , Victor Martinez wrote: The Natural Gardener usually has a good selection of oaks.

You might also want to check out a lacey oak if they have it. It's got beautiful foliage and great fall color. It's also disease resistant and very drought tolerant once established. -- Victor Martinez Send your spam he Email me he |

Different stores with the same names have completely different stocks of trees. Suggest that you invest some time and check several options before making a purchase. In Nov. I shopped for trees at the St. John's HD, walmart on 290, the 1-35 & Howard lane Lowes, HD & WM,, and the Lowes, HD, & WM in RR and found it very interesting and worthwhile to go to the trouble of checking them all. After all, these trees should be around a lot longer than I will. Finally bought a burr oak at the RR, Lowes, an ash tree from the HD off of St. John's and two pecan trees from the walmart off 290. You may want to call your target store(s) to try to get some kind of report on their stock before you go out. good luck!

I live pretty close to you, and Live Oak are thriving all over my place!
The soil, if you can call it that, is really just rock with a dusting of dirt. Those Live Oaks are very hardy, apparently, they live off sunshine and an occasional drink of water.
