The wood has many of the characteristics of other oaks, but is very prone to crack and split and hence is relegated to such uses as fencing. [10] Charcoal made using this wood is used especially for the braziers for heating water for the Japanese tea ...
Leaves of most plants include a flat structure called the blade or lamina supported by a network of veins, a petiole and a leaf base; [1] but not all leaves are flat, some are cylindrical. [ citation needed ] Leaves may be simple, with a single leaf blade, or compound, with several leaflets .

The leaves turn golden yellow to red [4] in autumn (less reliably in warmer areas). In Texas, specimens do not color well if they have a heavy seed year. [5] The flowers appear with the leaves in mid spring; they are produced in corymbs of 5–15 together, each flower yellow-green, about 4–5 millimetres (3 ⁄ 16 – 3 ⁄ 16 in
The leaves themselves are dark glossy green above and light green below, 7 to 20 cm (2.8 to 7.9 in)—rarely up to 26 cm (10 in)—long by 2 to 4 cm (0.8 to 1.6 in)—rarely up to 4.5 cm (1.8 in)—wide, and oblong to obovate (egg-shaped) in shape. The leaf margins are serrated, except near the base, with lobes between 1 and 3 mm (0.04 and 0.12 ...
The lanceolate leaves are glossy, simple and alternate and may reach 4 to 12 inches (10–30 cm) long and from 1 to 4 inches (2–10 cm) wide. The leaves have large teeth along the edges (hence the name, sawtooth) to occasionally nearly entire and the tips are pointed. [6]
