"Maybe it's not planted in the right location?" Always possible :-) Unless a dwarf form, these get a lot bigger than might be expected. But it can be pruned....just that now is not a good time to do so. Wait until late winter or very early next spring. And don't cut back into bare wood.

I will take up the gauntlet of this query. I don't clearly understand what your question is. American Chestnut (Castanea dentata) has toothed leaf margins. It doesn't have bristle tips like Quercus acutissima and other oak species with bristle tips on the leaf margins. Sawtooth Oak likely would not yet have been known to those naming North American trees, so would not have been in the running to be a Chestnut simile. Quercus prinus - also known as Basket Oak, Rock Oak, and Rock Chestnut Oak - is a great tree. I don't know indisputably where the name Chestnut Oak arises, but I can surmise a lot by observing this tree in many situations over the years, knowing its native range, its characteristics, and historical uses of the plant. First: take a look at this oak's native range. It is almost entirely coincidental with American Chestnut in eastern North America. This alone might have made someone name a tree - guilt by association. Second: I'd suggest the leaves you've illustrated are not entirely indicative of Quercus prinus' range of leaf morphology. I have photos of a variety of trees that grow around Louisville KY, from parks, forests, university campus - as well as a singular specimen here at Viburnum Valley. While I can observe leaves that look like what you've shown, I find more that are narrower and similar in conformation to American Chestnut - less the sharper dentate margins. This oak's arrangement of leaves may be similar enough to Chestnut (I cannot claim massive experience in Chestnut observation, but I've seen more than a couple) that this may be in part a reason to have historically named it as such. I also suspect that this oak's trunk and bark characteristics may have had enough similarity to Chestnut that it could lead to such naming. Finally, the number of uses of Chestnut Oak may have made it comparable to American Chestnut in value. The edible acorns, the high-tannin bark, the White Oak group wood - all these were valuable to those around when naming species on the North American continent was taking place. Thank you, Christopher CNC, for instigating this discussion and rumination. I plan to seek the comfort of several tomes in my collection, to see what else I can unearth about Quercus prinus and how it came to earn its common name(s).

Leaf outline is generally like hybrid anthuriums that came on the general market awhile back. And if not one of those it will be some other arum family plant. Of which there are many.

Please don't laugh, but your rose really reminds me of the photos of Eustacea Vye on HMF. EV looks like it's low thorn, but there are a few on older canes. I don't grow her, so I'm just making a wild guess. She's quite beautiful, as is your rose. Hope you get someone more knowledgeable about ID possibilities than I am. Diane
