Talk:Quercus palustris

Could someone post a picture of a pin oak leaf? Kind of silly to have an article about a tree with no way of identifying it, besides bark patterns. 207.109.40.223 00:36, 12 June 2007 (UTC)jawshoeaw

Yes, pictoral means of identifying are just as important as a taxobox. Also needs a Regions Found map.

I think that you should say weather it is gymnosperm or angiosperm. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.66.138.253 (talk) 23:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC) it is cool —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.7.4.147 (talk) 15:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
 * It is an angiosperm, like all oak trees. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.7.17.3 (talk) 18:54, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Pin Oak, Pin oak, pin oak... capitalization?
The words "pin" and "oak" are inconsistently capitalized throughout the article. Whatever the correct form is, some standard must be established and consistently applied.zadignose (talk) 13:16, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Allelopathy
“ Pin oaks are also classified as allelopathic, meaning they crowd out or otherwise successfully compete with understory vegetation to survive.”

^ Allelopathy is when plants emit chemical compounds to deter the success of nearby competing plants. 74.133.185.209 (talk) 02:45, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
