This plant is known for its rugged, leathery leaves and its ability to thrive in various soil types. It undergoes a dormancy period during the colder months.
Quercus rugosa prefers direct bright light and should be placed in a location where it can receive ample sunlight. It thrives in moderate temperatures and requires a moderate level of humidity. Water the plant when the soil has almost completely dried out, but avoid waterlogging.
