The species is commonly found in moist canyons and on ridges. [8] It also is found in coniferous forests and high elevated lands from 1,500–2,400 m (5,000 to 8,000 ft) above sea level. [ 6 ] Mountains of southern Arizona and New Mexico such as the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Chiricahua Mountains , for example, have a pine-oak woodland at ...
Shumard oak twigs terminate in a cluster of buds. The buds are lighter in color than the olive-green twigs. The young twig is highly reflective. [6] The leaves are arranged alternately and are broadly obovate with 5–9 lobes, each of which is terminated by bristle-tipped teeth. The leaves mature to between 10 and 21 cm (4 and 8 in) in length.
