Pinnacle Compton Oak
Pinnacle Compton Oak was selected at Bold Spring Nursery in a field of seedling Compton Oaks by long term employee Ramon Sanchez. His keen eye noticed Pinnacle reaching upward and maintaining a dominant pyramidal shape. Its foliage has more uniform shallow lobes reminiscent of Quercus alba. Pinnacle holds its foliage through much of the winter, dropping in early spring as the new flush occurs. With strong dense branching and upright habit, this Compton Oak checks a lot of boxes for a great urban shade tree.
