California scrub oak : ウィキペディア英語版 | Quercus berberidifolia
''Quercus berberidifolia'', the California scrub oak, is a small evergreen or semi-evergreen shrubby oak in the white oak section ''Quercus'' sect. ''Quercus''. It is a native of the scrubby hills of California, and is a common member of chaparral ecosystems.〔(Calflora taxon report, University of California, ''Quercus berberidifolia'' Liebm., inland scrub oak, scrub oak )〕 ==Description== ''Quercus berberidifolia'' grows to 1–2 meters (40-80 inches) tall, rarely to 4 meters (120 inches or 10 feet), and has sharply toothed, dull green leaves which are 1.5–3 cm (0.6-1.2 inches) long and 1–2 cm (0.4-0.8 inch) broad, leathery on their top surfaces and somewhat hairy underneath. The solitary or paired brown acorns are 1–3 cm (0.4-1.2 inches) long and 1–2 cm (0.4-0.8 inch) broad, and pointed or egg-shaped with thin caps when mature; they mature in about 6–8 months after pollination. In cooler, more exposed areas, scrub oak is usually a small, compact shrub, but in warm or sheltered areas the plant can spread out and grow several meters high.〔(Flora of North America: ''Quercus berberidifolia'' )〕 The epithet ''"berberidifolia"'' means "barberry-leaved," referring to the spiny leaf margins characteristic of ''Q. berberidifolia'' as well as of several species of ''Berberis.''
