Quercus lyrata ‘Early Bird’

Early Bird Overcup Oak

Early Bird is the newest addition to our line of Overcup Oaks. After years of evaluation we are excited to release this beauty as another great clonal oak selection. Early Bird is one of the earliest Overcup Oaks to leaf out year after year. It has a dominant central lead and upswept branching. While it isn't a columnar or fastigiate tree it is more narrow than typical overcup oaks keeping a tighter pryamidal shape as it reaches upwards.
