Quercus ilex
Quercus ilex, holm oak, this evergreen oak tree that grows quite tall in the Mediterranean regions remains a modest tree in our region, up to a maximum of 8 m high and 4 m wide.

The leaves are leathery, 3 to 8 cm long, glossy green, holly-toothed and felt-grey hairy on the underside. The Quercus ilex likes calcareous soil that is not too wet, it is resistant to salty sea wind and air pollution, is easy to prune and can be used as a solitary plant, a tub plant, a hedge or street plantings.
