It is slow to start, then outlasts everything else in the belt by a century or two, on dry, windy, alkaline ground that would stunt other oaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOrigin \u0026amp; History\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMontana's only native oak. Native from southeast Montana (Carter County) and the Dakotas east across the Midwest. Its thick corky bark let it survive prairie fires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFruit \u0026amp; Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBig fringed acorns that deer, turkeys, grouse and squirrels live on in good years. People can use them too, as long as the tannins are leached out first.

Expect little top growth for the first two or three years while it roots in.
