Audited Supplier Tanoak is a unique evergreen hardwood that belongs to the beech family (Fagaceae). It has characteristics similar to both oak and chestnut. All other 100 to 200 species of Lithocarpus are native to southeast Asia or Malaysia. In southwestern Oregon, tanoak is second to Pacific madrone as the most abundant hardwood.
Size, Longevity, and Form
Mature tanoak trees typically attain heights of 50 to 150 ft (208 ft maximum) and diameters of 6 to 48 in. (109 in. maximum). Tanoaks may live at least 250 years, although age can be difficult to determine. In dense forest stands, tanoaks develop narrow crowns with ascending branches on single, straight stems that are clear for 30 to 80 ft. In open stands, tanoaks often have broad crowns with large horizontal branches on short, forked boles. The root system of tanoak is composed of both deep and extensive lateral roots.
Geographic Range
Tanoak is native to a relatively narrow range on the West Coast from Santa Barbara, California, to Reedsport, Oregon (lat 34 to 43° N). It is most common in the Coast ranges and Siskiyou Mountains in California and southwestern Oregon, and can also be found in the Sierra Nevada.
