Plant Highlights

A low growing evergreen tree that is native to California coast lines and coastal inland woodlands. These trees can grow to 100 ft. or more in height, with a wide spread of large trunck like limbs forming a dense helmet-like canopy. Acorns were staple diet of indigineous tribes, while early settlers used the wood for charcoal. Trees need cool enviroment with fog to ease summer heat and coastal warmth in the winter.
