Quercus agrifolia, the Coast Live Oak, is a majestic evergreen tree native to California's coastal regions. It typically reaches heights of 20 to 80 feet, featuring a broad, rounded crown and a short, thick trunk. Its leathery, oval leaves are glossy dark green with spiny, holly-like margins. Highly drought-tolerant once established, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. This resilient species is a cornerstone of Mediterranean landscapes, providing essential habitat.
