Quercus geminata (Sand Live Oak)
Quercus geminata (Sand Live Oak)

Quercus geminata, or Sand Live Oak, is an evergreen oak tree native to the coastal southeastern United States, from southern Florida to southeastern Virginia and westward to southern Mississippi. It is found in dunes and oak scrubs.

It is a small to medium-sized tree; the sand live oak is scrubby and forms thickets. The bark is dark, thick, furrowed, and roughly ridged. The leaves are thick, leathery, and coarsely veined, with extremely revolute margins, making them inverted shallow bowls; their tops dark green, their bottoms dull gray and very tightly tomentose, and their petioles.
