{"product_id":"quercus_vaccinifolia","title":"Quercus vaccinifolia, Huckleberry Oak","description":"\u003cp\u003eA native from 3,000–9,000 feet in Southern Oregon, California, and Nevada, this is an evergreen groundcover\/shrub oak. The catkins in May are like sprays of beaded filaments in orange and gold; later the light green and then brown acorns are conspicuously ornamental—not what you were expecting on a low shrub. Leathery, small and wavy, occasionally toothed grey-green leaves grow densely. This is a beautiful and very useful plant. Handsome, no doubt, but also terrific at stabilizing banks; it loves a slope! And easy—no summer water preferred. Several wildlife species, birds included, enjoy the acorns. It is vaguely reminiscent of Huckleberry, thus its name. Add it to your chaparral collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMature size: 1-5 feet T x 1-10 feet W depending on conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\nMinimum temperature: -10° F","brand":"Dancing Oaks Nursery","offers":[{"title":"0.67 qt","offer_id":389277712400,"sku":"5\/2\/26 LH path + 28 ready 8\/1\/26","price":17.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1518\/9342\/products\/Quercus_vaccinifolia_1.jpg?v=1579809803","url":"https:\/\/dancingoaks.com\/products\/quercus_vaccinifolia","provider":"Dancing Oaks Nursery and Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
