Quercus texana, commonly known as听Nuttall's oak,听is a fast-growing, large听听听.
It is a tree growing up to 85 feet (25 meters) tall, with dark brown听. It has听听with sharp pointed lobes somewhat similar to those of the听听(Q.听georgiana) and听听(Q.听palustris).听It is fast-growing and usually has a pleasing red color in autumn, much more reliably so than the pin oak.
This species was for years erroneously called听Quercus nuttallii, but it is now known as听Q.听texana; this has created much confusion with听, which was known as听Q.听texana听but is now known as听Q.听buckleyi.
It is native to the south-central United States primarily in the lower听听Valley in听,听,听,听, and western听. There are additional populations in eastern听, southeastern听, southeastern听, far western听, and the southernmost tip of听.
It is still relatively obscure in the horticultural industry but is slowly gaining popularity due to its fast growth rate, ease of transplanting, good fall colors and ability to grow in wet soils. It is known for its ability to rapidly recover its gas exchange after flooding.
