Shumard oak leaves

There were some strong winds the day I visited the nursery. As a result, some of the smaller, potted trees had been blown over. This was one of them where I could get right on top of the leaves without getting into any weird or painful positions.

 

I'm actually surprised that this was a Shumard oak. It's a type of red oak (closely related to the Texas Red oak) and found in the Southeastern USA. This was much farther north of where you would normally see these trees (North and South Carolinas).
