Concordia Oaks

[Treefrog18]

Hello, I’ve been trying unsuccessfully to get my hands on a few Concordia oaks (Quercus × introgressa) for a couple years now. I have done quite a bit of grafting in the past on fruit trees and oaks and am thinking that may be the best route to go. Does anyone have any mature Concordia oaks that would be willing to cut and sell me a few scions? All that would be needed is a few pieces 6”-12” long of last year’s new growth that is roughly the diameter of a pencil and has a few dormant buds on it. I would also be willing to send you a couple grafted trees this fall as a thank you for providing the scionwood.

Thanks!

I tried that a couple months ago and they must have quite the queue of orders for them because they cancelled my order a couple days after I placed it unfortunately

Wasn’t able to make up to the house today and get you some graft wood. I’ll try to get up there tomorrow.

Thanks for the links.

I’ve looked at these too. I’m sure Morse nursery is reputable but they use the same pictures for Concordia and swamp white oak so I’m a bit skeptical which is why I didn’t order from them. Could be nothing, I just don’t want to spend the years growing out a seedling oak to find out that it’s not what it’s supposed to be.

The other link looks like it is the English oak cultivar also known as Concordia.

If all else fails, I’ve got a reminder set in my phone calendar for the MDC sale next year so I don’t miss it again

I appreciate the help on the search for this tree

Matt sent me some Concordia acorns a few years ago. I grew them out and planted them at camp. You should be in good hands with his assistance.

I can’t vouch for Morse one way or the other but Concordia are partly Swamp White and their leaf patterns can be the same. I have three in my yard and two look like swamp white and the other looks like a Chinkapin. They all came from MDC about 12 years ago.

Here’s what I was able to retrieve. Sealed the cut end with beeswax and into the refrigerator. Send me a PM and I’ll try to get them in mail tomorrow.

My trees usually have acorns, so I can send you some next year if you want.

Thank you, I will keep that in mind if the grafts don’t take and I’m unable to get seedlings from MDC next year.

Thats a nice looking tree, how old is it?

It was ~8 years old in that pic from 2018 and considerably larger now.

Very cool. Was that a seedling from MDC? What age did you start seeing acorns?
