Q. canbyi was cut back, but not killed, in the 2003 drought. Therefore it is not recommended for extremely dry areas. It one of the most rapid-growing oaks of all when young – one from a collection by Thierry Lamant planted at the same time as several Mexicans in November 2008 outstripped all the latter by far to reach over 4 metres in 4 years, but with watering in dry periods.
