Pin Oak Grows Quickly.

Considered a fast-growing tree, Pin Oak (Quercus palustris) is a great choice for large backyards. Topping out at 60 – 70 ft. tall, it features glossy green leaves that turn beautiful shades of russet, bronze, or red in autumn. It requires acidic soil and is a magnet for butterflies, hummingbirds, and squirrels. Pin Oaks are hardy in Zones 4 – 8.
