One of the oldest cultivated oak selections, introduced in the 1800s, 'Concordia' is prized for its glowing golden-yellow spring foliage that gradually softens to yellow-green through summer. Slower growing and smaller than the species, it is an excellent specimen tree for gardens where dramatic foliage and long-term landscape value are desired. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"606\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"606\"\u003eKey Characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"608\" data-end=\"1033\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"608\" data-end=\"668\"\u003eGolden foliage that shines throughout the growing season\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"668\" data-end=\"671\"\u003eNew leaves emerge an eye-catching butter-yellow, creating one of the brightest displays of any hardy shade tree. As the season progresses, the foliage matures to a soft yellow-green, maintaining a luminous appearance that contrasts beautifully with darker trees and shrubs. In cooler autumn weather, the foliage transitions to warm golden tones before leaf drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1035\" data-end=\"1495\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1035\" data-end=\"1090\"\u003eA valuable tree for wildlife and beneficial insects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1090\" data-end=\"1093\"\u003eLike other oaks, Concordia supports an extraordinary diversity of native wildlife despite being a cultivated selection. Oaks are among the most important host plants for hundreds of species of moths and butterflies, whose caterpillars provide essential food for nesting songbirds. Mature trees also produce acorns that feed Blue Jays, Wild Turkeys, squirrels, deer, and numerous other woodland animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1497\" data-end=\"1865\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1497\" data-end=\"1546\"\u003eAn elegant specimen for long-lived landscapes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1546\" data-end=\"1549\"\u003eUnlike the massive English Oak, 'Concordia' grows more slowly and develops a compact, rounded canopy, making it easier to incorporate into residential landscapes. Its brilliant foliage makes it a natural focal point in parks, estate gardens, and mixed tree plantings where seasonal color is a primary design element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1867\" data-end=\"2308\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1867\" data-end=\"1902\"\u003eBuilt for generations of beauty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1902\" data-end=\"1905\"\u003eOnce established, Concordia Oak is exceptionally durable and long-lived, adapting to a wide range of soil types and urban conditions. It tolerates drought better with age and develops the strength and permanence that make oaks among the finest legacy trees. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade helps preserve the vivid golden foliage and minimizes leaf scorch. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2310\" data-end=\"2329\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2310\" data-end=\"2329\"\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"2330\" data-end=\"2664\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"9ombuc\" data-start=\"2330\" data-end=\"2417\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2332\" data-end=\"2349\"\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cultivar of English Oak (species native to Europe and western Asia)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"zk757n\" data-start=\"2418\" data-end=\"2456\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2420\" data-end=\"2441\"\u003ePlant life cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1uyc4xq\" data-start=\"2457\" data-end=\"2506\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2459\" data-end=\"2480\"\u003eSun requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ontg1m\" data-start=\"2507\" data-end=\"2538\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2509\" data-end=\"2531\"\u003eSoil requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"vefcl3\" data-start=\"2539\" data-end=\"2570\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2541\" data-end=\"2559\"\u003eMature height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25–35 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"f0r50k\" data-start=\"2571\" data-end=\"2600\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2573\" data-end=\"2588\"\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e April – May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"h9ezjy\" data-start=\"2601\" data-end=\"2632\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2603\" data-end=\"2619\"\u003eBloom color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow-green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"dob8hr\" data-start=\"2633\" data-end=\"2664\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2635\" data-end=\"2660\"\u003eUSDA Hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2666\" data-end=\"3184\"\u003eConcordia Oak grows best in fertile, well-drained soil with adequate moisture during establishment. Provide enough space for its broad, rounded canopy to mature, and consider light afternoon shade in warmer regions to maintain the brightest foliage color. Whether planted as a specimen tree, incorporated into a large landscape, or used as a colorful contrast among native trees, Concordia offers decades of striking beauty while providing many of the ecological benefits that make oaks indispensable in the landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Farm Connection","offers":[{"title":"2 Gallon \/ 1-2'","offer_id":46145838186755,"sku":"OAK-024","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Gallon (2) \/ 1-2'","offer_id":49334208168195,"sku":"OAK-026","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/1128\/8067\/files\/Oak-Concordia-Tree-For-Sale_a7117488-9a54-4692-80cd-fc3241788559.jpg?v=1731953347","url":"https:\/\/tfcnursery.com\/products\/oak-concordia","provider":"The Farm Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
