The Red Oak

Red Oaks are very popular trees in the Lubbock area.  Color can vary from yellowish-red to deep maroon depending upon the acorn that the tree grew from. 
The most common Red Oak planted in Lubbock is the Texas Red Oak

Bradford Pea​r


One of the first trees to bloom in the spring and a popular ornamental tree in Lubbock.  It is often planted in areas where a very narrow growth habit is desired, but it can spread 20 ft to 30 ft.  It also has a reddish fall color.

Although this tree has desirable traits, it is becoming overplanted, and many trees are showing signs of chlorosis and fire blight.
