Also called Brant Oak, Persian Oak, Zagros Oak
Brant's oak is a shrub or small tree native to the Zagros Mountains and nearby uplands of Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey, where it is the dominant tree on limestone soils. It is seldom grown as an ornamental outside its native range, so care advice is general and based on oaks of similar habit.
