White Shield Osage Orange

Why it rocks:

White Shield Osage Orange is both thornless and fruitless. This incredibly tough Midwest native was found in the western part of Oklahoma by Steve Bieberich. Heat and drought-tolerant and has remarkable dark green, glossy foliage that turns yellow in the fall.

Where to put it:

White Shield Osage Orange can be effective as a windbreak when planted in a row along property lines. Will provide ample shade in any area of the landscape. We recommend that it be planted at least 15 Ft from any buildings if possible.

What it needs:

White Shield Osage Orange is very adaptable as it is tolerant of clay soil, both wet and dry conditions, air pollution, cold, and wind. Prefers full sun to part shade. Be sure to follow our watering guidelines for the first few growing seasons until the root system is well-established.
