The Blackjack oak (Quercus marilandica) is a small oakThis article is about oak trees and shrubs. OAK is also the three-letter IATA airport code for Oakland International Airport in Oakland, California USA. See also Oak, Nebraska, USA. See List of Quercus species The term oak can be used as part of the commo, one of the red oak group but fairly isolated from the others. Its name derives from the shape of the leaves, which flare from a tapered base to a broad three-lobed shape with only shallow indentations. The leaves are typically dark green and glossy, but also pubescent underneath.
The acorn is very small, and, like other red oaks, takes 18 months to mature.
The Blackjack oak is successful because it is a survivor, growing in poor, thin, dry, rocky or sandy soils where few other woody plants can thrive. It does not have the beautiful form of many oaks, but is nonetheless a valuable tree for growing in problem sites. It is sometimes an understory tree in pine stands on sandy knolls in the southeastern US.
