Has anyone ever tried germinating acorns from the Oracle Oak, Quercus morehus, a corss between Quercus kelloggii and Quercus wizlisenii? I'm wondering how they grow and what kind of seedling would be produced. Would it lack vigor being a seedling of a hybrid? Would the seedling revert to one of the parents? I have about 300 acorns which look great and will be giving this a try. If I get vigorous seedlings, I will plant a few of them out and see what we get. Thanks, Bonnie</p>

Please let me know how your Oracle oaks turn out. Have you had expirence with other oaks from acorns. I am a tree hobbyist, and will be trying various oak species this fall, winter and spring. Need all thre help I can get. Have had success with Burr oak and Holly oak.</p>
