I just learned that my mother planted an oak in an area which gets partial/dappled shade for most of the day as a result of tall trees surrounding it (mostly European Beech and London Planes). I tried telling her that the tree will likely either be stunted or die, but she insist it will "match the hatch" and grow just as tall as the others to reach the sunlight. Who's right in this? BTW- its a Nuttall Oak.
