Description
Q. marilandica is a perennial shrub/tree of the Fagaceae family that is native to North America.[1]
Distribution
Q. marilandica is found throughout the eastern United States; as far north as New York and as far west as Texas.[1]
Ecology
Habitat
Common habitats include upland forests and woodlands. It prefers droughty soils of clay, deep sands, or sandstones.[2]
Q. marilandica has been known to have a high tolerance to drought but it is not tolerant of shade.[1] Q. marilandica has neither a significant positive or negative response to agricultural-based soil disturbance in South Carolina coastal plains communities.[3] When exposed to soil disturbance by military training in West Georgia, Q. marilandica responds negatively by way of absence.[4]
Phenology
Blooms typically occur during the mid spring and seeding in the fall.[1]
Fire ecology
Q. marilandica has a low tolerance for fire.[1]
