The English Fastigate Hybrid Oak brings something different to a habitat plan. Its tall, narrow growth habit allows land managers to add a mast-producing oak without creating the wide canopy associated with traditional oak varieties.
Reaching 40–60 feet tall while maintaining a relatively narrow spread, this oak is a great option around wildlife orchards, food plots, property lines, and other areas where maintaining sunlight on surrounding plantings matters.
Narrow, upright growth habit
Produces wildlife-attracting acorns at maturity
Smaller canopy footprint than traditional spreading oaks
Helps maintain sunlight for nearby food plots and fruit trees
Excellent for property lines, field edges, access routes, and structured plantings
Can be used to create living screens and windbreaks
Adds another layer of long-term mast production to your property
Adaptable to a variety of well-drained soils
Great habitat isn't just about what you plant. It's about where you plant it.
The narrow profile of the English Fastigate Hybrid Oak gives you more flexibility when designing your property. Use it alongside fruit trees, chestnuts, shrubs, or food plots to add long-term mast production while limiting the amount of valuable sunlight lost to a wide canopy.
Space trees approximately 15–25 feet apart depending on your planting goals. Protect young trees from deer browse and rubbing, control competing vegetation, and provide adequate water during establishment.
Food plots provide immediate attraction. Strategically planted trees can change the way your property produces food for decades.
The English Fastigate Hybrid Oak gives land managers a different way to incorporate oaks into areas where space and sunlight are at a premium.
Grow up. Not out.
