The tree typically grows to a height of 40 to 60 feet (12 to 18 meters) with a spread of 30 to 40 feet (9 to 12 meters). It features a broad, rounded crown and deeply lobed leaves that measure 4 to 9 inches (10 to 23 centimeters) long.

Pruning: Prune Shumard oak trees during the dormant season to remove dead or damaged branches and promote a strong, healthy structure. Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to provide nutrients for healthy growth. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates. Mulching: Apply a 2 to 4-inch (5 to 10 centimeters) layer of mulch around the base of the tree to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Pest and Disease Management: Monitor Shumard oak trees for common pests such as oak borers and caterpillars. Treat infestations promptly with appropriate insecticides or biological controls. Additionally, watch for signs of diseases such as oak wilt and powdery mildew, and take preventive measures to minimize their impact. Winter Protection: In regions with harsh winters, protect young Shumard oak trees from frost damage by wrapping the trunk with burlap or using tree wraps.
