The Garden says of this oak :

"This is truly a noble oak, with handsome incised leaves, and one of the quickest growing oaks in cultivation. The wood is said to be very endurable and valuable. The timber has been used in old mines in Hungary for centuries, and without showing decay; as compared with our own oaks, its growth when young is as two to one. There is also a good specimen in the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens. It is also known as Q. conferta".

We have seen this in America, and find also that it is a very healthy and rapid grower, as in the old world.
