Select SustainablePlus Highbeam ® Overcup Oak

Native shade tree - own root. The first cultivar Overcup Oak available on its own root. Dr. Michael Dirr declares, “Highbeam® Overcup Oak is a refinement of one of the best native species. Its uniqueness resides in the lustrous leathery leaves, changing yellow and bronze-red in fall. Further, leaf drop is clean and uniform, without the lingering dried brown foliage common to many oak species. The gray-brown winter branches and trunk assume a scaly texture, presenting a sculptural silhouette in the winter landscape. Branches are upswept, making Highbeam® a perfect street tree.”

Endurance TM Compton Oak

Quercus x comptoniae ‘Endurance’

Endurance is the first cultivar Compton Oak available on its own root. Compton is a nifty hybrid between Live Oak (Q. virginiana) and Overcup Oak (Q. lyrata), both noted to be among the toughest trees for urban environments. Compton Oak was first named by Mrs. Compton of Natchez, MS in the early 1900’s.

Endurance is a vigorous selection and embodies traits of both its parents with great tolerance to many soil types and once established, very drought-tolerant.

Alta ® Southern Magnolia

Magnolia grandiflora ‘TMGH’ P.P.#11,612

The small foliage brings a finer, more formal texture to the landscape, changing the perception of a traditional Southern Magnolia.. “The gaps in Southern Magnolia aesthetics and culture have been filled by Alta®.” – Dr. Michael Dirr
