Latin Name:  Quercus lamellosa
Family:  Fagaceae
Author:  Sm.
 
Known Hazards:  None known
 
Mature Height:  35   Mature Width:  
 
Habitat:  Forms dense evergreen forests with Lithocarpus and Castanopsis species at altitudes up to 2700 metres[146, 258].



Cultivation Notes:  Prefers a good deep fertile loam which can be on the stiff side[1, 11]. Young plants tolerate reasonable levels of side shade[200]. Tolerates moderate exposure, surviving well but being somewhat stunted[200]. A very ornamental tree[1], it is somewhat tender in Britain but grows well on the Isle of Wight and in Cornwall[1]. It prefers warmer summers than are usually experienced in Britain[200]. Intolerant of root disturbance, trees should be planted in their permanent positions whilst young[11]. Hybridizes freely with other members of the genus[200]. Plants in this genus are notably resistant to honey fungus[200].
